# DORA: DNS Over REST API

`DORA` is a microservice that provides a simple API for DNS querying through a
REST architecture. It aims to be a consumable API that's easy to digest and
easy to deploy on cloud-based solutions, such as [AWS Lambda][lambda], [GCP
Cloud Functions][gcp-cloud-func], [GCP AppEngine][gcp-app-engine],
[Heroku][heroku] and so on.

[gcp-cloud-func]: https://cloud.google.com/functions/
[gcp-app-engine]: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/
[heroku]: https://www.heroku.com/


## Features

`DORA` mainly relies on the [`dnspython`][dnspython] toolkit. It can query the
following records:

- `A`: IPv4 address;
- `AAAA`: IPv6 address;
- `CNAME`: Canonical name (name alias);
- `MX`: Mail exchange (mail transfer agent name);
- `NS`: Authoritative name server;
- `TXT`: Text records.
