How to use Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 with Kubernetes DNS
I'd like to use Cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 nameservers in Kubernetes, alongside DNS over TLS. It looks like I can do it using core-dns. I need to setup the following somehow:
-
Dockerize Bind9 DNS with custom image
Shamless plug for CoreDNS. Much better DNS server than classic bind9. And of course there's already a nice container image for it.
-
Kubernetes traffic discovery
But another approach that could work in Kubernetes, because the DNS servers are within the cluster itself, would be to work directly with the DNS server pods. In most Kubernetes clusters, whether standalone or managed (GKE, AKS, EKS), the cluster DNS is either coredns or kube-dns. That was great to minimize how much configuration options we’d need to support. We realized we could edit the coredns or kube-dns configmap resources to enable their log option, which would make them log all the queries they handle. We’ll cover exactly how it’s done in more detail below.

Self hosted DNS server that responds to queries with data from web API?
CoreDNS has an ectd plugin, so your service could add entries to a database, which is used as record source. Not the same mechanism as you have described, but it will get the job done. Also this is what Kubetnetes does for incluster dns records.
