Zone delegation assigns authority for a domain or subdomain to the name servers of another hosted zone, allowing separate accounts to manage different environments. section 7.1.3
A practical platform arrangement:
- Register the main domain in the production account and use its hosted zone for top-level traffic. section 7.1.3
- Create hosted zones for environment subdomains such as dev.epetech.io, qa.epetech.io, and preview.epetech.io in the accounts that manage them. section 7.1.3
- Publish NS records in the primary zone to delegate each subdomain to its separate hosted zone. section 7.1.3
Environment routing
A team can receive dev, QA, and production environments by mapping dev.epetech.io and qa.epetech.io to nonproduction resources while retaining epetech.io for production UI traffic. section 7.1.3
