BIND 9
Bind is short for Berkeley Internet Name Domain Service, which is an open source software that implements DNS servers. It has become the most widely used DNS server software in the world, and more than half of the DNS servers on the Internet are set up with Bind, which has become the de facto standard in DNS.
history
- BIND4 version, the BIND package was originally written at the University of California, Berkeley in the early 1980s as a graduate program with funding from the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Administration (DARPA). Versions of BIND through 4.8.3 are maintained by the Computer Systems Research Group (CSRG) at the University of California, Berkeley. Douglas Terry, Mark Painter, David Riggle, and Songnian Zhou formed the original BIND project team.
- BIND8 version, Internet Software Consortium, Inc. (ISC) was founded in 1994 by Rick Adams, Paul Vixie, and Carl Malamud to provide a place for the development and maintenance of BIND. BIND versions starting with 4.9.3 are developed and maintained by the ISC and supported by ISC's sponsors. As co-architects/programmers, Bob Halley and Paul Vixie released the first production-ready version of BIND version 8 in May 1997. BIND versions 4 and 8 have been officially deprecated. In January 2004, the ISC changed its name to Internet Systems Consortium, Inc.
- BIND9, released in September 2000, significantly rewrote almost all aspects of the underlying BIND architecture.
- BIND10, which was developed between 2009~2014, ISC began to try to rewrite BIND from scratch using BIND 10. It is designed to replace and improve BIND 9 and is based on a completely new application framework. In 2014,The ISC ended the development of BIND 10, and instead refocused on investing in BIND 9.
