a decentralized naming system used on the Internet to translate human-readable domain names into numerical IP addresses that computers can understand, enabling the proper routing of data between devices and servers
What is "DNS"?
DNS, or Domain Name System, is a system that translates human-readable website names, like www.example.com, into numerical IP addresses that computers use to identify each other on the Internet. It acts as a phonebook for the internet, helping users access websites by typing in easy-to-remember names instead of complex numbers. When a user types a website address into their browser, DNS servers quickly find the corresponding IP address, allowing the user to connect to the correct website. Without DNS, people would need to remember long strings of numbers to visit websites.
