Which statement correctly describes Amazon Route 53's ability to route DNS traffic for a domain?
Route 53 can route traffic only for domains that are registered through Amazon Route 53.
Route 53 can route traffic for any domain, even if the domain is registered with a different registrar, as long as its NS records are pointed to the Route 53 name servers.
Route 53 can route traffic only within a single AWS Region where the hosted zone is created.
Route 53 requires an Amazon EC2 instance running a DNS server to resolve queries for any domain.
Amazon Route 53 can be used as the authoritative DNS service for domains regardless of where the domain name is registered. To do this, you create a public hosted zone in Route 53 and then update the domain's name-server (NS) records at the current registrar to the four Route 53-provided name servers. Because of this, Route 53 is not limited to domains registered with AWS, whereas statements implying such a restriction or unrelated limitations are incorrect.
