If I'm reading this right, Amazon Route 53 supports up to 5 API requests per second writing up to 10^3 records per request. Also, writes are free, while reads cost as little as $0.20 / 10^6 -- cheaper than DynamoDB! I'm... seriously considering using Route 53 as a database.

There are also limits on the number of records that can be in a hosted zone. They're generous for a DNS zone, but pretty small for a database!

Oh, I was already planning on sharding across multiple zones. ;-)

Nothing sensitive in this case. And I would be making requests from lambda@edge so hopefully no hostile DNS servers in the way!

(you could use private zones, right?)

True! Private zones will only be queryable in the VPCs you associate them with. Btw, you now also have table spaces!

KMS encrypt the values before storing them as TXT records. This also means you can use Route 53 for regulated workloads that demand encryption-at-rest...

Corey what have you done.

So far it sounds like blockchain, but at least it's cheap.
