Motivation

CoreDNS can become a bottleneck with high DNS query volume. NodeLocal DNSCache reduces latency and load by caching
DNS responses on each node.

Proposal

Add Kubernetes templates for NodeLocal DNSCache:

  • DaemonSet template for the DNS cache pods
  • ConfigMap for DNS configuration
  • Service for the cache endpoint

Test Plan

  • Deploy the DNS cache infrastructure
  • Verify DNS resolution works correctly
  • Measure DNS latency improvement

Release Plan

  • Nothing to do / These changes follow the usual release cycle.
