    Stands for Domain Name Server.  This is the server that allows us to type in simple names like google.com and be directed to the correct server IP address where google.com is stored instead of having to type in the server IP address like 216.58.210.206.  Some people like to think of it like a phone directory for internet addresses – we type in the name and then we find the address.
