4NDNS is a completely distributed database system that largely mimics the structure of the
5DNS system in today's Internet but operates within the NDN architecture. Although the
6design of NDNS was primarily driven with a desire to provide support for cryptographic key
7distribution and routing scalability management, we believe that NDNS can also serve a
8number of other purposes during the development and deployment of the NDN architecture in
9coming years.
