Motivation
Inside kubernetes, DNS resolution uses ndots: 5 this means any dns requests that has less than 5 dots will go through all the search domains before looking up the actual domain. AWS Cloudwatch
logs.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com
has 3 dots.Modification
Hardcode the Cloudwatch endpoint to
logs.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com.
so DNS requests to Cloudwatch force the DNS lookup to be fully qualified.This has been tested on a non prod cluster and we've seen a reduction of the DNS queries to the
coredns
