TL;DR ?
=======

[](#tldr-)

ElasticSearch (for example) needs a list of hosts to talk to, for instance :

-
-  etc

This allows you to have a single DNS record (e.g. in Route53) which responds with multiple A records, which then get formatted into an appropriate list, e.g

- DNS record: elasticsearch.test.org resolves to 1.2.3.4, 1.2.3.5, 1.2.4.6
- Becomes: , ,

The prefix + suffix used in decoration are configurable and could be omitted.

In the event DNS lookup fails, we fall back to returning the passed in host - e.g.
