Emirtech Technology is an Abu Dhabi systems integrator (ADMCC-approved for security systems), founded in 2018 and operating from M44, Mussafah Industrial Area. Our AWS Route 53 DNS implementation service covers commercial accounts across Abu Dhabi city, Khalifa City, Mussafah, Yas Island, Saadiyat, Reem, Al Raha and Al Ain — call our engineers on +971 55 651 7843 for a site visit. We configure Route 53 Public Hosted Zones for internet-facing domains and Private Hosted Zones attached to one or more VPCs, populate authoritative records (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV, NS, CAA, ALIAS), and align TTL values with your change-management cadence. We design routing policies for each workload — Simple for single-endpoint resolution, Weighted for A/B testing and gradual cut-overs, Latency-based for nearest-region resolution across AWS Middle East (UAE) and other regions, Geolocation for geo-restricted content, Geoproximity with traffic bias from Route 53 Traffic Flow, Failover for active-passive disaster recovery, and Multi-Value Answer for client-side load distribution across healthy endpoints. We provision Route 53 health checks against HTTP, HTTPS, TCP and calculated targets, integrate them with Amazon CloudWatch alarms, and connect Route 53 Application Recovery Controller routing controls where multi-region DR is in scope. Route 53 Resolver inbound and outbound endpoints are deployed to bridge VPC DNS with on-premise Active Directory or appliance resolvers, with conditional forwarding rules and Resolver DNS Firewall domain lists for DNS-layer web filtering. Domain registration through Route 53 (where the TLD is supported) is handled on your behalf, including auto-renew, transfer lock, contact privacy and DNSSEC signing on public zones. We are an Abu Dhabi implementation house: we are not an AWS Partner Network (APN) member, not an ICANN-Accredited Registrar, not a Microsoft Solutions Partner and not a 24/7 SOC operator. We hold no manufacturer credential of our own. Commercial AWS subscriptions are procured through authorised UAE channels.
Route 53 capabilities
Public Hosted Zones for internet-facing domains and Private Hosted Zones attached to VPCs, with A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV, CAA and ALIAS records, aligned TTLs and change-set deployment via the Route 53 API or console.
Simple, Weighted, Latency-based, Geolocation, Geoproximity (Traffic Flow), Failover and Multi-Value Answer policies configured per record set, with traffic shifting for cut-overs, regional steering and active-passive DR.
HTTP, HTTPS, TCP and calculated Route 53 health checks with CloudWatch alarm integration, plus Route 53 Application Recovery Controller routing controls for multi-region disaster recovery.
Route 53 Resolver inbound and outbound endpoints for hybrid DNS between VPC and on-premise, conditional forwarding rules, and Resolver DNS Firewall domain lists for DNS-level filtering of malicious and unwanted domains.
Each engagement begins with a discovery of your current DNS estate — registrar, authoritative servers, record inventory and dependent workloads — followed by a documented Route 53 design covering hosted zones, routing policies, health checks, Resolver topology and DNSSEC posture. To start, call +971 55 651 7843 or request a free AWS Route 53 consultation.
Use cases
ALIAS records for Application Load Balancers, CloudFront distributions, S3 website endpoints, API Gateway, Global Accelerator and Elastic Beanstalk, with weighted shifts for blue-green and canary releases on internal and customer-facing services.
Latency-based and Geoproximity routing steering traffic to the nearest healthy region across AWS Middle East (UAE), Europe, Asia and North America, improving response times for mobile, web and API clients.
Active-passive Failover policies with health checks against primary endpoints, automated DNS cut-over to standby regions or on-premise sites, and ARC routing controls for coordinated multi-region recovery during incidents.
Resolver inbound endpoints letting on-premise systems query private AWS records, outbound endpoints forwarding selected domains to corporate Active Directory or appliance resolvers, with Resolver DNS Firewall blocking known-bad domains.
Emirtech sets clear boundaries for every AWS Route 53 engagement so commercial buyers in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain know exactly which work, certifications and partner relationships are in scope. The bullets below summarise our honest delivery scope under this service.
Scope, deliverables, exclusions and acceptance criteria are documented in writing before any Route 53 change is executed against production zones.
Common questions
No. Emirtech Technology is not an AWS Partner Network member at any tier and is not an authorised AWS distributor. We implement and manage AWS Route 53 commercially through authorised UAE channels, with field engineering delivered from our Mussafah M44 office. We hold no manufacturer credential of our own.
No. Domain registration handled through Route 53 is provisioned in your AWS account using Amazon Registrar or Gandi (depending on TLD) as the registrar of record. Emirtech configures the registration, contact details, auto-renew, transfer lock and DNSSEC on your behalf but does not act as a registrar.
All public routing policies are in scope: Simple, Weighted, Latency-based, Geolocation, Geoproximity (via Traffic Flow), Failover and Multi-Value Answer. We document the policy choice per record set against your availability, latency and DR requirements before applying the change.
Yes. We deploy Route 53 Resolver inbound endpoints so on-premise systems can resolve private AWS records, and outbound endpoints with conditional forwarding rules so VPC workloads can resolve corporate Active Directory zones. Resolver DNS Firewall rule groups can be layered for DNS-level filtering.
No, Emirtech is not a 24/7 SOC or NOC operator. We configure Route 53 health checks, CloudWatch alarms, query logging and notification channels (SNS, email, ticketing webhooks) so your in-house or contracted operations team receives the alerts. Business-hours support is available under a written agreement.
