 For each exposed service Mate will create two records in Route53:
 
-1. A record - An Alias to the ELB with the name inferred from `kubernetes-format` and `kubernetes-domain`. So if you create an nginx service named `my-nginx` in the `default` namespace and use a `example.com` as domain the registered record will have a hostname of `default-my-nginx.example.com`. You can, however, overwrite the generated DNS name by using an annotation on the service (`zalando.org/dnsname`). When using ingress DNS records based on the hostnames in your rules will be created.

-2. TXT record - A TXT record that will have the same name as an A record (`default-my-nginx.example.com`) and a special identifier with an embedded `aws-record-group-id` value. This helps to identify which records are created via Mate and makes it safe not to overwrite manually created records.
