Description: CoreDNS is a DNS server. It is written in Go. It can be used in a multitude of environments because of its flexibility. CoreDNS is licensed under the Apache License Version 2, and completely open source.

@jlmeeker May you please describe how are you going to use it? I would like it to land it in a meaningful bundle

jlmeeker commented 4 years ago

Mainly as a replacement for other DNS servers like Bind for datacenter/public DNS as well as on some machines as a local resolver.

FWIW, we have pdns, likely the better solution for most users.

ahkok commented 4 years ago

For a local resolver, pdns-recursor should suffice, as well.

jlmeeker commented 4 years ago

I'm sure the pdns options would work fine, but with Kubernetes using CoreDNS as the default in-cluster DNS provider it would be convenient to have the option of keeping similar technology running outside the cluster. As far as DNS servers go this one is really flexible, easy to setup/maintain, and a single binary.
