Ask HN: How do you handle private DNS for dev/staging environments?
We have multiple environments like (dev, staging, prod) and I'm tired of managing DNS for internal services. Current options all suck:
Public DNS entries → security risk
VPN + custom DNS → overkill, IT bottleneck, everyone complains
Editing /etc/hosts → obviously doesn't scale
I want devs to just access api.dev.company.internal without:
Asking IT to configure anything Running a full VPN Manual host file edits Exposing endpoints publicly
Am I missing an obvious solution? How do you handle this at your company?
