You can now use HAQM Route 53 alias records to map custom domain names (such as api.example.com) both to API Gateway custom regional APIs and edge-optimized APIs and to HAQM VPC interface endpoints, without incurring additional Route 53 query charges. Alias records also let you point your zone apex (such as example.com) at these resources, which is not possible using standard DNS CNAME records.
You can create alias records pointing to API Gateway resources and HAQM VPC endpoints using the Route 53 console or API. To learn more, see the HAQM Route 53 developer guide.
