What is DNS?
DNS (Domain Name System) is the link between your browser and the website you visit. It acts as a translation system that converts the domain name, such as www.dsdeurope.com, into an IP address. Web browsers communicate via IP addresses, so these 'translations' allow browsers to load internet resources.
