My goal is to get a simple "# of requests per day" value against a Route 53 hosted zone.



I see no straightforward way to do this.



I have created the query logging as explained here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/query-logs.html



However this is extensive logging and it's split per global edge server. All I want is "domain example.com was queried 40,000 times in the last 24 hours" and similar metrics.



Is this possible? The logging seems overkill and I'll have to do quite a bit of parsing through all the subdirs to get that type of sum.

    You can probably work it out from your bill. Curious why you need this. It's largely irrelevant except for billing, given that there can be many caches between Route53 and the end user, for example an ISP cache. Would number of requests to your web server be a good enough number? With a DNS TTL probably around 5 minutes this number is going to be pretty large for a busy website.

    TTL values shouldn't be set based on the number of queries that result, they should be set based on how quickly you might need to change the records' data and have it reflected everywhere.

    AFAIK DNS TTL is only relevant when you want to change where your site is hosted, or other similar things. If you use a load balancer you have no choice on your TTL anyway. I suggest this isn't a good investment of your time.

    I know what TTL is. AWS charges per-million-lookups and higher TTL means overall less lookups but less change time for DNS changes, so I would like to have some insight into DAILY QUERIES sheesh it's a simple question honestly. We do logs of dns chagnes because our systems are cattle, not pets so lots of DNS changes for A/B deployments That's kind of out of the scope of this question though since I'm looking for a "quick" way to check the values and not looking to invest much time hence the simple question simple answer --- Sounds like "it can't be done" is the right answer here.

There is no quick & easy solution here. Short answer, use the billing dashboard for historical metrics.



The billing dashboard is the only way to get values like this right now unless you want to write a tool to parse and analyze CloudWatch logs using the query-logs exporter, which is not a straightforward solution as the question is asking for.
