what is the difference between ELB and route 53 and what will be the use case? ELB will also route request to different servers/instances and Route 53 will also do the same.

Hey, one answer you can check here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57321793/elastic-load-balancer-elb-and-route-53-in-aws
Route 53 is a DNS server which can offer some routing options for end stations to reach an internet resource. Ideally, the internet resource that they will be reaching is a ELB and not the web server itself. There’s a good reason for this. By decoupling the Web server from the the user connection, maintenance and load is better managed. Another thing to remember is that Route 53 will never be in the data path whereas the ELB will be. Also, health checks are more robust on the ELB compared with Route 53.
Thank you Paul. Does this mean that the ELB’s DNS name becomes a "Value" for a Route 53 record?
