What is Domain


Domain name is the identity of one or more IP addresses, i.e. the domain name google.com points to the IP address "74.125.127.147". It is easy to remember a name rather than a long string of numbers.
A domain name cannot have more than sixty-three characters excluding .com, .net, .org, .edu, etc. The minimum length of a domain is one character excluding the extensions. It is entered in the URL after the protocol and subdomain as shown in the following example and the image:
E.g. https://www.google.com
https: ( Protocol)
www. (Subdomain)
google.com (domain and domain suffix)

Originally, it was developed by him to fulfill the need of automated information sharing between scientists across the world, so that they could easily share the data and results of their experiments and studies with each other. CERN, where Tim Berners worked, is a community of more than 1700 scientists from more than 100 countries. These scientists spend some time on CERN site, and rest of the time they work at their universities and national laboratories in their home countries, so there was a need for reliable communication tools so that they can exchange information. Internet and Hypertext were available at this time, but  no one thought how to use the internet to link or share one document to another. Tim focused on three main technologies that could make computers understand each other, HTML, URL, and HTTP. So, the objective behind the invention of WWW ...
