A DNS record that sets one domain name as an alias for another.
A DNS record that defines one hostname as an alias for another canonical hostname, used for example to manage multiple hostnames pointing to the same set of servers. It comes with constraints: a CNAME can't coexist with other records (such as MX) on the same hostname, and it can't be set at the zone's apex (the root of the domain).
