I've always wanted a simple way to manage redirects in one place. Routinely, I find myself adjusting them, and it usually looks like like update DNS, then go update the load balancers and then maybe hit an http service.

So, after taking in heavy inspiration from DMARC, I built Simple Redirect Daemon (SRD).

SRD open source, and is hosted for free. Check out https://srd.sh for docs and debug tooling with record generation and inspection. For example, https://srd.sh/?r=show-hn-srd.twopow.com

I've been using this in production across many services throughout the last 6 months, and have really enjoyed the ease of use. I hope you will too!

Feedback and thoughts welcome!

P.S. to quickly see it in action: https://show-hn-srd.twopow.com + `dig TXT _srd.show-hn-srd.twopow.com`.
