Introduction
The Dynamic DNS service provides a unified, federation-wide Dynamic DNS support for VMs in EGI infrastructure. Users can register their chosen meaningful and memorable DNS host names in given domains (e.g. my-server.vo.fedcloud.eu) and assign to public IPs of their servers. By using Dynamic DNS, users can host services in EGI Cloud with their meaningful service names, can freely move VMs from sites to sites without modifying server/client configurations (federated approach), can request valid server certificates in advance (critical for security).
Technical Roadmap
In 2024, below development activities are expected to be finalized:
- Support for API-based registration of names
- VO-level authorisation to the service
- Expiration of unused names after a configurable period of time
- Adoption of the EGI brand guidelines
There are no requirement tickets for Dynamic DNS. But below are the development tickets accepted by the board:
