Management of degraded cellular network functions deployed over a cloud

A method for operating a computing system for functional integration with a domain name system (DNS) resolver, wherein the method comprising:

• repeatedly performing an attempt to connect, using the DNS resolver, to a network function module located within a core of a cellular network;
• detecting a first threshold number of unsuccessful connection attempts to the network function module;
• and
• causing, in response to the detecting, the DNS resolver to remove one or more records, for the network function module, from a hosted zone that includes the network function module.

One or more non-transitory, computer-readable storage media having computer-readable instructions thereon which, when executed by one or more processing devices, cause the one or more processing devices to perform operations comprising:

• repeatedly performing an attempt to connect, using a domain name system (DNS) resolver, to a network function module located within a core of a cellular network;
• detecting a first threshold number of unsuccessful connection attempts to the network function module;
• and
• causing, in response to the detecting, the DNS resolver to remove one or more records, for the network function module, from a hosted zone that includes the network function module.
