Maping the domain name purchased from big rock to aws ec2 server

My question is that can i use the default name servers provided by the bigrock for mapping my domain to aws ec2 . I have done this by amzon route 53 there i have created a hosting zone and i haved mapped my domain. But aws is charging me around 55rs per month for this.

So can i use the default name servers provided by bigrock and create a A record in bigrock itself. Please help me

Your question is a little unclear but it seems that:

  • You have purchased a domain name on bigrock.in
  • You want to point the domain name to an Amazon EC2 instance

If so, you should do the following:

  • In the Amazon EC2 management console, create an Elastic IP address and associated it with the EC2 instance. This will give the instance a static IP address that does not change.
  • In Big Rock, add an A-Record that points to that IP address

There is no need to use Amazon Route 53 if you do this configuration in Big Rock.
