Managed DNS
Introduction
The Domain Name System (DNS) is the basis for connecting your computer to service over the internet. The internet is based on two types of addresses; human-friendly domain names, such as google.com, and Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. The internet’s global Domain Name System (DNS) helps any connected device locate any website, by connecting a domain name to an IP address. DNS is what tells a computer in Australia that the google.com website can found from a data centre in California.
The Domain Name System (DNS) is of critical importance to any online brand. DNS connects a recognisable name to the content, making it the internet’s main distribution and branding system. Without DNS, customers would be unable to reach the service they want.
