    In easy language, Domain Name Server(DNS) is the directory of websites like directory of phone numbers. DNS maintain this directory and translate them to IP addresses.

    For example : If you type www.websitename.com, then your internet service provider views the DNS associated with the domain name and translates it into machine friendly IP address(IP address : 74.125.224.72) and directs you to correct website.

    DNS, which stands for domain name system, controls your domain name's website and email settings. When visitors go to your domain name, its DNS settings control which company's server it reaches out to.

    DNS, which stands for domain name system, controls your domain name's website and email settings. When visitors go to your domain name, its DNS settings control which company's server it reaches out to.

    For example, if you use GoDaddy's DNS settings, visitors will reach GoDaddy's servers when using your domain name. If you change those settings to user another company's servers, visitors will reach them instead of us when visiting your domain.

    Domain Name System (DNS) is one of the industry-standard suite of protocols that comprise TCP/IP. Microsoft Windows Server 2003. DNS is implemented using two software components: the DNS server and the DNS client (or resolver). Both components are run as background service applications.
    Network resources are identified by numeric IP addresses, but these IP addresses are difficult for network users to remember. The DNS database contains records that map user-friendly alphanumeric names for network resources to the IP address used by those resources for communication. In this way, DNS acts as a mnemonic device, making network resources easier to remember for network users.
    The Windows Server 2003 DNS Server and Client services use the DNS protocol that is included in the TCP/IP protocol suite. DNS is part of the application layer of the TCP/IP reference model.

    DNS is abbreviated as Domain Name System. DNS is simply a database that links meaningful names (known as host names), For example ( http://www.microsoft.com, to a specific IP address, such as 192.168.124.1.).

    Many common applications use DNS services, including

    - World Wide Web (WWW)
    - E-mail
    - Other applications, such as instant messaging

    Domain Name Servers (DNS) are the Internet's equivalent of a phone book. They maintain a directory of domain names and translate them to Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. This is necessary because, although domain names are easy for people to remember, computers or machines, access websites based on IP addresses.

    A DNS server runs special-purpose networking software, features a public IP address, and contains a database of network names and addresses for other Internet hosts.

    The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical decentralized naming system for computers, services, or any resource connected to the Internet or a private network. It associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating entities. Most prominently, it translates more readily memorized domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of locating and identifying computer services and devices with the underlying network protocols. By providing a worldwide, distributed directory service, the Domain Name System is an essential component of the functionality of the Internet.

    Each server will have one IP address, DNS is used to resolve domain names into IP
