what is DNS ? | everything about DNS |

The Domain Name System (DNS) is one of the foundations of the internet, working in the background to match the names of web sites that people type into a search box, with the corresponding IP address. To be more specific, it resolves domain names to IP addresses. So if you type in, a web address in your web browser, DNS will resolve the name to a number because the only thing computers know are numbers.
So for example, if you wanted to go to a certain website, you would open up your web browser and type in the domain name of that website.
Also It's still possible for someone to type an IP address into a browser to reach a website, but most people want an internet address to consist of easy-to-remember words, called domain names.
