DNS record mapping the hostnames and the external IP

Question

So I'm deploying this app called WSO2 API Manager to AKS and at the end of the tutorial it asks me to do this :

If the defined hostnames (in the previous step) are backed by a DNS service, add a DNS record mapping the hostnames and the external IP (EXTERNAL-IP) in the relevant DNS service.

So I don't know where to go from here, because if I map the DNS to the IP in the hosts file, the app works no problemo. But I'm on AKS, if someone could guide me through doing the equivalent over there, I would be grateful.

For a DNS to work through the internet you need to properly configure it. If your DNS name is abc.com, first you need to purchase "abc.com" domain through a domain registrar. Then it should be mapped to the public IP of your Ingress. You can use Azure DNS for this. Refer to the following.
