The Domain Name System (DNS) translates human-readable domain names into IP addresses, enabling seamless access to online services. It is essential for directing traffic and ensuring efficient communication between systems.

In Cloudsania, DNS helps organizations deploy their projects by mapping applications, services, and environments to domain names. This allows users to access deployed projects easily, ensures proper traffic routing, and enhances scalability across cloud environments. With Cloudsania’s integrated DNS management, users can configure and maintain domain records effortlessly.
