http://servicediscovery.{region}.amazonaws.com/#X-Amz-Target=Route53AutoNaming_v20170314.CreatePublicDnsNamespace

Creates a public namespace based on DNS, which is visible on the internet. The namespace defines your service naming scheme. For example, if you name your namespace <code>example.com</code> and name your service <code>backend</code>, the resulting DNS name for the service is <code>backend.example.com</code>. You can discover instances that were registered with a public DNS namespace by using either a <code>DiscoverInstances</code> request or using DNS. For the current quota on the number of namespaces that you can create using the same Amazon Web Services account, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloud-map/latest/dg/cloud-map-limits.html">Cloud Map quotas</a> in the Cloud Map Developer Guide. <important> The <code>CreatePublicDnsNamespace</code> API operation is not supported in the Amazon Web Services GovCloud (US) Regions. </important>
