Using own DNS

Last modified Apr 20, 2023

It is simple to add your own DNS for services running in Kithosting. After you have added your information in your DNS, certificates can be created automatically.

Example of DNS configuration

DNS configuration UIs will differ across different platforms but the basic concepts are the same.

The following is an example:

dnsconfig

The ip address will differ from test to the prod cluster. The ip’s can be found under selfservice

Certificates

When you have set up the DNS information you can easily change the certificate information in the Helm chart. This will instruct letsencrypt to issue a new certificate for the dnsName
