Where to place default DNS records

jgrispa

I have a basic 4 server cluster:
1 Panel
1 WP sites / database
1 fbackups
1 Mail (still testing deliverabilty vs MXroute) becaue i like the idea of having it all together

So the 2 options i see for managing DNS are:

Adding DNS role to 1 or 2 of my servers, Mail and backup? maybe Mail and panel? If I follow this path which 2 servers you recommend using as primary and secondary DNS servers?
Enable Cloudflare integration so I can manage DNS within my cluster and it will update cloudflare dns records.

Not sure which way to go. Any advice is welcome

Also where do i set my default dns records if decide to go having custom dns server within the cluster (option 1)?
Or if i decide to do it through Cloudflare's integration, where do i set defauult records I want to be syced to Cloudflare?

Thanks a lot for all your comments, this comunity is top notch.

Cluster configuration depends mainly on your budget.

Looks correct to me.

I guess it doesn't matter, DNS is a minor role, the important thing is that uptime would be high.
Cloudflare integration does not work automatically so it will need your extra work, configuration.

You can use the option “DNS zone templating” and in each new domain will be added default DNS records.
