Goals of a DNS
Let's take a more detailed look at the DNS itself. The primary goal of the DNS is to provide business-critical information to the right place at the right time. To accomplish this, the DNS will have to perform the following tasks:
- Provide scalability
- Enable creation of Microsoft Windows Distributed interNet Application Architecture (DNA) systems
- Facilitate Internet use
- Create corporate memory
- Eliminate paper forms
- Allow self-service applications, which will enable users to perform tasks independently
- Capture customer feedback
- Provide business partner communication
- Respond to crises
All of these topics will be discussed in detail in the sections that follow.
