A domain name is an easy-to-remember address that can be translated by DNS into server’s IP address. DNS is the Internet service that maps Internet domains into corresponding IP addresses. DNS database is distributed and replicated among many DNS servers, so when you change your domain’s IP address, the changes take a while to propagate.
