  1. ( , ACM SIGCOMM Workshop on Hot Topics In Networking)
    The Domain Name System (DNS) leverages nearly 1K dis- tributed servers to provide information about the root of the Internet’s namespace. The large size and broad distri- bution of the root nameserver infrastructure has a number of benefits, including providing robustness, low delays to topologically close root servers and a way to cope with the immense torrent of queries destined for the root nameservers. While the root nameserver service operates well, it repre- sents a large community investment. Due to this large cost, in this paper we take the position that DNS’ root nameserv- ers should be eliminated. Instead, recursive resolvers should use a local copy of the root zone file instead of consulting root nameservers. This paper considers the pros and cons of this alternate approach.
