### Top Level Domains
http://www.iana.org/domains/root/db

### Domain Registrars
- GoDaddy.com, 123-reg.co.uk

### SOA Records
### NS Records
### A Records
### TTL
### CNAMES
### Alias Records
- Work like a CNAME record, but can't be used for naked domain names (zone apex)

### Examp Tips
- ELB's do not have pre-defined IPv4 addresses, you resolve to them using a DNS name
- Understand the difference between an Alias Record (which is Not get charged) and a CNAME.
- Given the choice, always choose an Alias Record over a CNAME.
