Which solution will meet these requirements with the LEAST administrative overhead?

Amazon Route 53 Resolver endpoints allow you to integrate DNS between AWS and on-premises environments easily. By creating inbound and outbound resolver endpoints, you can configure conditional forwarding rules so that DNS queries for your on-premises AD domain are forwarded to the on-premises DNS servers. This approach is fully managed, scales automatically, and requires the least administrative overhead.

A, D: Require provisioning, managing, and patching EC2 servers or domain controllers.
