Try it
Reads and writes hit a real Route 53 hosted zone. Reads use DNS-over-HTTPS
— your browser asks Cloudflare's resolver, just like dig would.
Results appear here.
What's happening
Every SET turns into a Route 53
ChangeResourceRecordSets call, packing your value as a
gzipped + base64-encoded TXT record under
_kv.<encoded-key>.<zone>.
Every GET is a real DNS query — try the
dig command shown in the results pane against your own
machine.
Cost vs. DynamoDB, supported value sizes, and the obligatory "when not to use this" live in the repository docs.
