Day 10: Get your custom domain (real URLs)
· 23 min read
What you'll learn
How to set up a custom domain with Route 53 and point it to your Application Load Balancer.
No more default URLs
Day 9: You built the front-yard house (ALB)
Today: We give it a real address
Here's the situation: Your ALB has a public endpoint:
fargate-alb-1234567890.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com
This works, but:
❌ Impossible to remember
❌ Looks unprofessional
❌ Hard to share
❌ Can't use for SSL certificate (Day 11)
What you want:
ai-caller.yourdomain.com
Clean. Professional. Memorable.
Solution: Route 53 + Custom Domain
