return to Network View

Each node has a distribution software component. It is responsible for distributing and coordinating data and software throughout a DIDO network. Probably one of the best-known implementations of distribution software is the Domain Name System (DNS), which forms the backbone of the Internet:

Domain name system (DNS) is a hierarchical naming system built on a distributed database. This system transforms domain names to IP addresses and makes it possible to assign domain names to groups of Internet resources and users, regardless of the entities' physical location.1)
