Registry

« Back to Domain Name Dictionary | Definition of Registry

The “Registry” is the authoritative, master database of all domain names registered in each Top Level Domain. The registry operator keeps the master database and also generates the “zone file” which allows computers to route Internet traffic to and from top-level domains anywhere in the world. Internet users don’t interact directly with the registry operator; users can register names in TLDs including .biz, .com, .info, .net, .name, .org by using an ICANN-Accredited Registrar.
