What is Domain Naming Service (DNS)?

Answer Posted / sudheer

DNS stands for Domain Name System, an Internet service that
translates domain names into IP addressess. Because domain
names are alphabetic, they're easier to remember. The
Internet however, is really based on IP addresses. Every
time you use a domain name, therefore a DNS service must
translate the name into the corresponding IP address. For
example, the domain name www.sudheer.com might translate to
192.168.252.101.
