region_name="us-east-1",
aws_access_key_id="test", aws_secret_access_key="test")
zone = r53.create_hosted_zone(Name="example.internal",
CallerReference="1")["HostedZone"]["Id"]
r53.change_resource_record_sets(HostedZoneId=zone,

AWS::Route53::HostedZone
AWS::Route53::RecordSet
See CloudFormation engine for intrinsic support and lifecycle details.
Known limitations
- Changes are visible inside MiniStack only — your host resolver is unaffected.
- Health checks are stored but status is never updated.
- DNSSEC operations are metadata only.
