What is DNS (domain name system)?

Published Nov 15, 2017
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a network of servers that translates domain names into IP addresses, allowing users to access websites easily. Think of it as the internet’s phone book – each device connected to the internet has a unique numerical IP address, but thanks to DNS, you don’t need to remember long strings of numbers. Instead of typing 50.63.201.97, you can simply enter domain.me in your browser.
