Arda Platform DNS Structure
Arda’s Platform is built using capabilities and resources from external service and cloud providers. At runtime, it is composes of a collection of Infrastructures, Purposes, and Components, each of them using resources from external providers. The Arda platform exposes a series of public URLs in Technical Documentation Repo to access its capabilities.
Arda maintains a series of DNS names and services to publish its platform public URLs.
The DNS structure is a hierarchy of three levels:
- Global DNS hosted by GoDaddy, which provides the
arda.cardsdomain. - The Platform DNS is hosted by the Platform Root account](index.md#root) with different zones for each of the
io,app,api, andauthdomains capabilities subdomains and holdsNSrecords for each of the Infrastructure zones. - Each Infrastructure creates Zones to serve the names for its purposes.
- Each Purpose implements one target for each of the capabilities using API Gateway.
