Hi Community!

Can we consider or use MS Active Directory Domain Services (ADDS) as a Domain registrar instead of using any external Domain Service Provider because I don't want to Buy/purchase basically I have Oracle VirtualBox Setup wherein I created 2 server and 1 client machine out that 1 server I have installed ADDS services and prompted that server as domain controller so ultimately I got a domain and that domain I would like to integrate with Azure AD or AWS route 53 just for LAB/Education Purpose more importantly I would like to use AWS route53 services in that I would like to use this my LAB created domain name.

I know it's not at all possible but just to stimulate a lab is it possible any workaround please suggest?

    Hi the DNS within AADDS is self contained to the managed domain:

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory-domain-services/manage-dns

    It only provides DNS for the managed domain however.
