This review is from: Signposts in Cyberspace: The Domain Name System and Internet Navigation (Paperback)
Much of the Web would be useless without the domain name system. This is one of the core backbones of the Internet. The book explains how the infrastructure has stood up against massive expansion since the dawn of the Web.
Considerable effort went into reinforcing the redundancy and quick response of DNS. For those interested in such details, and in the commercial jockeying between the various DNS Registrar companies, you can turn to this book. As for the future, an exhaustion in IPv4 addresses looms. Eventually, we will have to migrate to 128 bits addresses in IPv6. While the domain names can remain constant, lots of behind the scenes twiddling needs to be done for a successful transition. |
