BIND

BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) is a software system that translates human-friendly domain names, like www.example.com, into IP addresses that computers use to identify each other on the internet. Think of it as the internet’s phonebook, helping users access websites easily without needing to remember complex numbers. BIND runs on servers, managing how domain names are resolved into IP addresses, ensuring reliable and efficient internet navigation. It’s an essential component for the functioning of the Domain Name System (DNS), which underpins the entire structure of internet browsing.
