ok so im setting up DNS for a side project and keep going back and forth on running my own nameservers lol some ppl say its the obvious best practice, others say it adds complexity for no real gain. ive had one bad experience in the past where a host held my DNS hostage during a migration, so Im a bit paranoid now. what do you do, and why? interested in what went wrong for you as much as what went right. seriously need help here 馃槶
Why Do Seasoned Admins Insist On Running My Own Nameservers???
Accepted solution
Jump to the replywhatever u choose, keep TTLs reasonable and lower them a day before any migration. most DNS horror stories i've seen came from long TTLs and forgotten records, not from teh provider itself.
