ConoHa DNS is a basic managed DNS hosting service provided by ConoHa by GMO, one of Japan’s major hosting and cloud providers. It allows users to configure authoritative DNS records through a simple web interface or via API, and works with domains registered at any registrar by updating the domain’s nameservers.
While the service supports standard record types such as A
, AAAA
, CNAME
, MX
, NS
, TXT
, and SRV
, it does not currently support ALIAS
or ANAME
records, making it less suitable for root-domain CDN integration.
DNSSEC is also not supported, so users with strong security or compliance requirements may prefer a more feature-rich DNS provider. That said, ConoHa DNS remains a practical choice for straightforward DNS setups and integration with other ConoHa services.
