Yep. I had an (immutable) JVM ECS service that worked fine for a year, then started failing DNS in just one of several AWS AZs and for just one of various host names--one with something like 24 A records, a few but not an outrageous number. Occasionally forking a process to run 'dig' on the same name made it work for a little while.

AWS support's only advice was "don't use Alpine"; annoyingly, switching the containers to a Debian base cured it, even though this would appear to make absolutely no sense with respect to it failing in just one AZ.
