The Domain Name System (DNS) acts as the internet’s phonebook, translating human-readable website names, like example.com, into computer-friendly Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, such as 192.0.2.1. This essential process allows your web browser to locate and access websites, making web browsing possible and efficient. DNS records, stored on DNS servers, contain various pieces of information about a domain, including the IP address. Without DNS, remembering complex IP addresses for every website would be impractical.
