⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.Define a stable Route53 idempotency key.
The proposal calls zone creation idempotent but does not define a stable
CallerReference. A retry after a lost response can create an orphaned or duplicate zone.Derive the value deterministically from the cluster UID and zone type. Persist it. Test the lost-response case. AWS documents
CallerReferenceas the retry identity forCreateHostedZone. (docs.aws.amazon.com)

⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.Make external-dns support an explicit capability contract.
A deployed external-dns instance may not watch the CRD source, the CPO namespace, or
NSrecords. It may also lack credentials for the parent zone.Require explicit configuration for the CRD source, API version,
NSin managed record types, parent-zone filtering, namespace scope, and cross-account permissions. Otherwise use the consuming-platform fallback. ExternalDNS documents these configuration requirements. (kubernetes-sigs.github.io)
106-110: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.Do not derive DNS readiness from
DNSEndpoint.status.
DNSEndpoint.statusreports the observed generation. It does not prove that external-dns updated the parent Route53 records. Route53 hosted-zone creation also starts inPENDINGbefore its NS and SOA records become available. (kubernetes-sigs.github.io)When external-dns is absent,
AWSManagedDNSAvailablebecomes true before consuming-platform NS delegation. This conflicts with the instruction to gate certificate requests on that condition.Use separate conditions, or keep the readiness condition false until Route53 and parent-zone DNS checks confirm delegation.

237-245: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.Replace the unsupported tag-based IAM scope.
Route53 does not support tag-based condition keys, so
aws:ResourceTag/red-hat-managedcannot enforce the listed resource scope.CreateHostedZonealso has no tag field; tagging requires a separateChangeTagsForResourcecall. (docs.aws.amazon.com)Add tag-management permissions if tags are used for discovery. Scope operations with exact hosted-zone ARNs and supported Route53 record-condition keys. Otherwise reconciliation will fail, or broad permissions may allow changes to unrelated zones.

⚠️ Unverified finding
Sandbox verification was unavailable.Verify the version-skew claim against the CRD schemas.
An older HostedCluster or HostedControlPlane CRD can prune status fields that are absent from its OpenAPI schema. Older typed writers can also drop fields during full-status updates. Kubernetes preserves unknown fields only when the schema explicitly enables that behavior. (kubernetes.io)
Do not rely on generic status copying without verifying served and stored schemas, conversion behavior, and full-status writes. Add a downgrade test with old CRDs and operators, or require coordinated rollout.

||
| When `SharedVPC.LocalZoneID` is not provided (or `SharedVPC` is nil), the AWS PrivateLink controller creates the `<clusterName>.hypershift.local` private Route53 zone itself, associated with the guest cluster's VPC. This matches the behavior already implemented for Azure and GCP. | ||
|
|
||
| No opt-in annotation is needed — every private or PublicAndPrivate cluster requires this zone. If the zone ID is not provided, the controller creates it. If a zone ID is provided via `SharedVPC.LocalZoneID`, or if the zone already exists (discoverable via `ListHostedZones`), the existing behavior is preserved. |

If the zone ID is not provided, the controller creates it. If a zone ID is provided via
SharedVPC.LocalZoneID, or if the zone already exists (discoverable viaListHostedZones), the existing behavior is preserved.
Just to clarify, SharedVPC.LocalZoneID is only used in the case of a shared VPC (a separate account owns the vpc for the hosted cluster's instances and also owns the hosted zones associated with that vpc)
The normal route is that LocalZoneID is not specified in the HostedCluster and is always discovered by the PrivateLinkController. Therefore, if you intend for the local zone to be created, we need a way to indicate that in the API.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Thanks for the clarification on SharedVPC, I had that wrong. Fixed the text to scope it correctly.
For the auto-create question: gating it behind managedDNS. Without managedDNS, behavior is exactly as before.
With managedDNS, I think this could work for shared VPC too, since the CPO already assumes SharedVPC.RolesRef.IngressARN for Route53 operations. Looking at the code, lookupZoneID already uses the IngressARN-assumed client, so discovery should work. And CreateHostedZone would go through the same assumed role. So SharedVPC.LocalZoneID would become unnecessary when managedDNS is set.
But I might be missing something here. Is there a reason LocalZoneID was made explicit for shared VPC instead of relying on discovery via IngressARN? If there is a subtlety I'm not seeing, that would affect whether managed DNS can work for shared VPC at all.
Assuming it does work, the shared VPC Route53 policy would need CreateHostedZone and DeleteHostedZone added. Thoughts?

Is there a reason LocalZoneID was made explicit for shared VPC instead of relying on discovery via IngressARN?
Looking at the shared ingress role it does seem like we should be able to discover it. But possibly because of the condition limiting the domains it can operate on or simply a point in time version of the policy, when we developed support for shared vpc we were not able to query zones, which is why we required it.

My understanding is that one of the main motivations for shared vpc is to centralize management in an account where we have reduced powers. Do we want to extend zone management to that account? (might be good to check with product mgmt)
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Good call. We talked to the business and field teams about this and we are not going to extend zone-management permissions to the shared VPC account. As you already mentioned, the whole point of shared VPC is a more restrictive environment, so adding CreateHostedZone/DeleteHostedZone there does not feel right.
So for shared VPC + managedDNS: the .hypershift.local zone and private ingress zone must still be pre-created by the VPC owner, same as today. SharedVPC.LocalZoneID stays required. The only thing managedDNS does in shared VPC is create the public ingress zone (which lives in the cluster account, created with the CPO own credentials, not IngressARN), plus the ACME CNAME and NS delegation.
Updated the enhancement to reflect this. Change 1 has the full rationale, rest of the doc references it.

| **Zone cleanup:** | ||
|
|
||
| On HostedCluster deletion, the controller deletes the `DNSEndpoint` CR (if created), drains all non-SOA/NS records from each managed zone, then deletes the zones. Zone IDs are stored in `AWSEndpointServiceStatus.IngressDNSZoneIDs` so cleanup can proceed even if the HostedControlPlane resource has been deleted. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
What controller would delete the hosted zones?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The PrivateLink controller handles it. On HC deletion it drains non-SOA/NS records from each managed zone, then deletes the zones. Zone IDs come from hcp.Status.Platform.AWS.DNSZones. If the HCP is already gone by then, the ingress zone IDs are unavailable and those zones would be orphaned. The .hypershift.local zone is tracked separately in AWSEndpointServiceStatus so it can still be cleaned up even if the HCP is gone.
We could add tag-based fallback for the HCP-already-deleted case later, but it might be overkill. Let me know if that makes sense to you.

This controller reconciles AWSEndpointService resources. Should it not be the CPO since the zone Ids are stored in the hcp status?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
You are right, this is a piggyback on the AWSEndpointService reconciler and the ingress zones are really an HCP concern, not an endpoint service concern. Moving the managed DNS feature (creation + cleanup) to the HCP reconciler. The .hypershift.local zone stays in the AWSEndpointService reconciler since it is genuinely an endpoint service concern (zone ID in AWSEndpointServiceStatus).
I've moved ingress dns reconciliation to the main CPO reconcile loop and adapted the rate limiting strategy (as we reconcile that loop a lot and I don't want to break route53 ;) )

| **Risk: Race between zone creation and certificate issuance** | ||
|
|
||
| The consuming platform may attempt ACME DNS01 challenges before the ingress zone and ACME CNAME are created. Mitigation: the `AWSManagedDNSAvailable` condition signals when DNS is ready. The consuming platform should gate certificate requests on this condition. |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Still seems like you could end up with a race. Should there be a dns query/check to indicate that the customer's public zone is available?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Good input. I would add a live net.LookupNS() check that the CPO runs when delegation is configured. The AWSManagedDNSAvailable condition stays False with reason NSDelegationPending until delegation actually resolves in DNS. The consuming platform could gate certificate requests on that condition, so it won't try ACME challenges until DNS is ready.
In practice and in our setup, it might even be advantageous for the initial certificate to be created before delegation, as this would succeed as well through the non delegated path. I'm not intending to gate on this but instead let the certificate challenge through whatver path is available - whether that's directly by finding the acme DNS01 record in the service-owned hostedzone, or by going through the delegation loop.
Does a net.LookupNS() check cover the race you're thinking about?

Yes though I wonder if it might be overkill

I think it is worth keeping. It is a lightweight check and gives us really useful signal operationally.

when using this would additional allowed principals for the vpc endpoint role arn be automatically set? Today CS validates the customer input includes both route53 and vpc endpoint role arns as part of the flow

Can you expand on this? What exactly is CS doing and what is the expected outcome?

This is just so the operators can assume the role afaik, it is a hypershift requirement not CS

@gdbranco not sure why we would need additional allowed principals (afaik we only set one up for backplane access today). I agree that the route53 (aka ingress role) and vpc endpoint role (aka cpo role) need to be set. That is not changing.

In general I am +1 to these changes, I think pushing (when it makes sense) into HyperShift for things it really should/can manage makes sense. Also agree that keeping shared VPC setups as they are (bring-your-own-all-the-things) is best for long term management.

Enhancement Proposal
Managed Ingress DNS for AWS Hosted Control Planes (RFE-9235 / OCPSTRAT-3616).
Enables the HyperShift CPO to create and reconcile Route53 DNS zones for AWS hosted control planes, removing the requirement that all DNS zones be pre-created externally. Annotation-gated with no behavioral change for existing clusters.
