Azure DNS is a hosting service for DNS domains that provides name resolution using Microsoft Azure infrastructure. It allows users to manage their DNS records with the same credentials, APIs, tools, and billing as their other Azure services, offering high availability and performance through Azure's global network of DNS servers.

Also known as: Azure Domain Name System, Microsoft Azure DNS, Azure DNS Service, Azure DNS Hosting, Azure DNS Zone
