I am trying to migrate my website from a wordpress site to a static site.
I have added all my static assets to a bucket on google cloud storage and successfully pointed static.mildfuzz.com to that bucket using a CNAME
. All is good.
How can I redirect both mildfuzz.com
and www.mildfuzz.com
to the same bucket? My thought was to use ALIAS
or URL
, but they do not seem available using Google Cloud DNS service. I then thought maybe use a CNAME
, but I was concerned that assigning a CNAME
to mildfuzz.com
would mess with my MX
records.
At the moment my static site is also being served by a Compute Engine
VM, so that I can use an A
record pointing to an IP, but I would very much like to be able to turn this VM off, as that is the point of switching to a static site in the first place!

At the moment, there is no real way of routing multiple domains including a naked domain to a single bucket with the use of Cloud DNS that applies globally.
Cloud DNS does not currently offer
ALIAS
orURL
records and the using aCNAME
record will likely affect yourMX
records.This seems like an excellent feature. I would suggest filing a feature request on the Google Cloud Platform public issue tracker with the Product-CloudDNS label. Feel free to comment with a link if you do so here so others can follow through and support the request.
