Cloud DNS
Highly Available Global DNS Network
Google Cloud DNS is a scalable, reliable and managed authoritative Domain Name System (DNS)service running on the same infrastructure as Google. It has low latency, high availability and is a cost-effective way to make your applications and services available to your users. Cloud DNS translates requests for domain names like www.google.com into IP addresses like 74.125.29.101. Cloud DNS is programmable. You can easily publish and manage millions of DNS zones and records using our simple user interface, command-line interface or API.

Use Google’s infrastructure for production quality, high volume authoritative DNS serving. Your users will have reliable, low-latency access to Google’s infrastructure from anywhere in the world using our network of Anycast name servers. Our SLA promises 100% availability of our Authoritative Name Servers.
Automatic Scaling
Cloud DNS can scale to large numbers of DNS zones and records. You can reliably create and update millions of DNS records. Our name servers automatically scale to handle query volume without any intervention from you.
Cost Effective Pricing Tiers
Cloud DNS is a simple, cost effective alternative to hosting your own DNS servers on premises or using other third party DNS services. For customers with more than 10,000 zones, our highest volume pricing tier lowers the cost of ownership for large organizations operating DNS infrastructure at scale.
