Research on cross-domain trustable blockchain based decentralized DNS architecture by Kai LEI, Fangxing SHU, Lei HUANG, Qichao ZHANG

“…The domain name system (DNS) is an important internet infrastructure.However,current DNS utilizes centralized hierarchical structure with severe dependence on root server,which causes defects such as the risk of single-point failure and the abuse of central rights.Designing new decentralized DNS mainly focuses on transforming the domain name system from a single trust domain which relies on the center to multiple trust domains with the top-level domain name as the root parallel to each other,but also faces cross-domain credible challenges.To design a cross-domain trusted architecture,the concept of separating control and analysis was adopted,and a dual-blockchain DNS architecture was proposed.At data layer,a novel cross-domain verification was designed based on a one-way accumulator verification scheme,with the time complexity of the verification process O(N) reducing to O(1) nearly.The CDBFT algorithm was proposed by combining the DPoS mechanism and the BFT algorithm,whose average throughput reaches 736 TPS.The theoretical derivation and experimental results have demonstrated the advantages of this new DNS architecture on security,performance,and scalability.…”
