Route53 is a DNS web service from AWS. kubeCDN uses Route53 to route users to servers with lower latency.
Route53 setup will take place on AWS Console. The decision to carry this out on AWS Console was made since Route53 can be setup in many different ways and AWS Console was determined to be the best way to expose all options to the user. Future versions of kubeCDN should include an automated Route53 setup mechanism.
