While cloud providers offer managed GSLB services (Route 53, Cloudflare Load Balancing), self-hosted alternatives give you full control over routing logic, eliminate per-query charges, and keep DNS infrastructure within your operational boundary. In this guide, we compare three approaches to self-hosted DNS GSLB: <strong>K8GB</strong>, <strong>PowerDNS with GeoIP backend</strong>, and <strong>CoreDNS with GeoIP plugin</strong>.</p>
