The option enables NIOS to discover multiple AWS accounts in an AWS organization and synchronize the DNS data using the Route 53 service. You can configure the multi-account synchronization option to synchronize DNS data from all or, starting from NIOS 9.0.4, from specific accounts (children) in an AWS organization (parent).
