| Domain name servers or DNS is the component of a network infrastructure that hosts domain names. The domain name is a part of the address that identifies a specific Web site. A Web site is defined by a domain name that is submitted to the DNS or the Domain Name System. This system becomes active when the user registers the domain name with it and also during various other stages like adding or taking down domains, for example. It is important to understand that even if you manage domains manually, you need to connect to a DNS server so that to create and monitor DNS records. There are different types of DNS servers and you need to choose one for your website to function properly. You should choose the right type of nameserver for your site and one that will satisfy the needs of your site. In addition, when selecting a domain name, you have to consider various factors including availability and stability. Availability - Your site can be unavailable due to many reasons which can restrict access to the domain name. An IP address is not static and it changes often. Hence, the nameservers cannot predict the exact location of your website every time you update your site. The DNS servers will detect this and will give an error message to prevent your connection to the domain name server. Therefore, if you wish to ensure proper connectivity to your domain name, you must ensure availability of the DNS nameservers you use. Stability - There are some name servers that experience a high influx of visitors while others experience a low influx. It is essential to test the performance of the name servers you use and see if they are responding correctly to request from your end. Some of the best name servers in the industry can experience up to 600 concurrent visitors within a single test. The DNS name servers that experience the maximum amount of traffic have the highest uptime. DNS servers allow you to control the type of website you are creating. There are different types of DNS such as the provider-based DNS, autonomous system (AS) name, public DNS and the in-house DNS. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. For example, using an autonomous system name, you can configure different sub-domain names for your website. This will allow you to point to a specific page for each of the sub-domains. On the other hand, ASN, or Autonomic System Number, is a numerical representation that uniquely identifies your domain name. It allows you to control the availability of nameservers. Most importantly, an A record can be associated with one or more DNS zone records. However, most importantly, an A record is used to point to a specific webpage rather than to a domain name. Many hosting companies offer unlimited space on their shared servers. However, if you need more, you may need to purchase additional blocks of disk space from your web host. Furthermore, you may also have to share the bandwidth on the same server. For this reason, you should purchase your own domain name server. A domain name server (DNS) is software that runs on your computer that enables it to point to a specific webpage. In addition to controlling your domain name, a DNS also offers the functionality of forwarding emails.
