A data analytics company operates a 100-node high-performance computing (HPC) cluster for parallel data processing within an AWS VPC. The HPC cluster requires frequent DNS queries to resolve and connect to Amazon RDS databases, Amazon S3 buckets, and on-premises data stores accessible via AWS Direct Connect. During peak events, the cluster size can grow five to seven times. Currently, the company uses two Amazon EC2 instances as primary DNS servers in the VPC, forwarding queries to the default VPC resolver for Route 53 domains and to on-premises DNS servers for other domains. However, DNS query failures occur when HPC nodes attempt to resolve RDS and S3 endpoints, leading to job failures. What architectural change should a network engineer implement to ensure the DNS service is highly scalable?
