DNS
Domain name system (DNS) is an Internet service that translates 
domain names into IP addresses. Because domain names are 
alphabetic, they are easier to remember. The Internet, however, is 
actually based on IP addresses. Each time you use a domain name, 
a DNS service must translate the name into the corresponding IP 
address. For example, the domain name www.example.com might 
be translated to 198.105.232.4.
The DNS system is, in fact, its own network. If one DNS server does 
not know how to translate a particular domain name, it asks another 
one, and so on, until the correct IP address is returned.
