DNS Domain Name length considerations
Overview
The AWS Route53 documentation provides some guidance on length constraints when it comes to domain names.
Domain Label length
Each domain label (that is, each dot separated text component of a domain name) may be no more than 63
characters in length. However, Cloud Platform’s DNS component currently prepends some
Route53 records with an additional string of 6
characters.
This means that for the time being we have implemented a Kubernetes level policy which will not permit the creation of an Ingress
object whose hostname fields contain
domain labels of length greater than 57
characters.
