A number of Internet applications rely on the Domain Name System
(DNS) to support their operations. Many applications use the DNS to
locate services for a domain, for example; more recently, some
applications have begun transforming identifiers other than domain
names into formats that the DNS can process. Proposals to
incorporate more sophisticated application behavior into the DNS,
however, have raised questions about the applicability and
extensibility of the DNS. This document explores the architectural
consequences of installing certain application features in the DNS,
and provides guidance to future application designers as to the sorts
of ways that application can make use of the DNS.
