 # What is Azure DNS?
 
-The Domain Name System (DNS) is responsible for translating (resolving) a service name to an IP address.  Azure DNS provides DNS hosting and resolution using the Microsoft Azure infrastructure. Azure DNS not only supports internet-facing DNS domains, but it also supports private DNS zones.
+The Domain Name System (DNS) is responsible for translating (resolving) a service name to an IP address.  Azure DNS provides DNS hosting, resolution, and load balancing for your applications using the Microsoft Azure infrastructure. Azure DNS supports both internet-facing DNS domains and private DNS zones.
 
 Azure DNS provides the following services:
 - [Azure Public DNS](public-dns-overview.md) is a hosting service for DNS domains. By hosting your domains in Azure, you can manage your DNS records by using the same credentials, APIs, tools, and billing as your other Azure services.
 - [Azure Private DNS](private-dns-overview.md) is a DNS service for your virtual networks. Azure Private DNS manages and resolves domain names in the virtual network without the need to configure a custom DNS solution. 
 - [Azure DNS Private Resolver](dns-private-resolver-overview.md) is a service that enables you to query Azure DNS private zones from an on-premises environment and vice versa without deploying VM based DNS servers.
 - [Azure Traffic Manager](/azure/traffic-manager/traffic-manager-overview) is a DNS-based traffic load balancer. This service allows you to distribute traffic to your public facing applications across the global Azure regions.
 
-Using Azure DNS, you can host and resolve public domains, manage DNS resolution in your virtual networks, enable name resolution between Azure and your on-premises resources, and load-balance your applications.
+Using Azure DNS, you can:
+
+* [Host and resolve public domains](/azure/dns/dns-zones-records) 
+* [Manage DNS resolution in your virtual networks](/azure/dns/private-dns-privatednszone) 
+* [Enable name resolution between Azure and your on-premises resources](/azure/dns/private-resolver-hybrid-dns)
+* [Load-balance your applications](/azure/traffic-manager/traffic-manager-how-it-works)

  Azure Public DNS is based on Azure Resource Manager, which provides features such as:
 
 * [Azure role-based access control (Azure RBAC)](../azure-resource-manager/management/overview.md) to control who has access to specific actions for your organization.
-
 * [Activity logs](../azure-resource-manager/management/overview.md) to monitor how a user in your organization modified a resource or to find an error when troubleshooting.
-
 * [Resource locking](../azure-resource-manager/management/lock-resources.md) to lock a subscription, resource group, or resource. Locking prevents other users in your organization from accidentally deleting or modifying critical resources.
