Hello Yonghua,

Fom where I am standing (.ro) things look differently, as it follows.

 ~$ dig +short aws.amazon.com ns in
ns-932.amazon.com.

~$ dig +short ns-932.amazon.com. a in
52.16.221.207

I guess that Amazon has geo aware DNS configuration in place.

Also I can find the A IN for ns-911.amazon.com and it matches yours.

~$ dig +short ns-911.amazon.com. a in
207.171.178.6

Best,
Valentin
