pdns

A test case of the flow of code for pdns pipe backend deployments

Problem statement

Deploy PowerDNS on two environments (dev and staging) with a custom pipe backend.

Requirements

• A development environment (all in one) suitable to run on a laptop utilizing containers.
• A staging instance deployed in AWS.
• Both environments should leverage the same configuration management code (of your choice) for configuration.
• Use this github repository to maintain and deploy the code to all environments.
• Custom pipe backend implementing a new DNS record type of your choice.
• PDNS Statistics should be available from external world.

Bonus

• Sucessful test cases initiate code promotion to staging
• Implement the GEO dns record type, different results when sourcing from North America or Europe.
• Leverage AWS Cloud Formation to initialize secondary environments (i.e. staging)
