Presented herein are methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and devices for providing and managing a Top-Level Domain that uniquely identifies an object or a role The method may comprise linking the domain name with an object (e.g., an artwork) by adding approximately eight additional fields to the domain name “Whois” record. “Whatis” (the combination of existing “Whois” and a number of additional fields) directly links the domain name, the registrant, and an (art) object. Any or all of the additional fields can be employed in many varieties of ways as a link and identification with objects or roles, transferring with the ownership of an object or, say, title or position of a role.

A method performed by a processing system includes receiving a request from a first user endpoint device to establish a mobile terminating connection to a second user endpoint device, determining whether an access certificate that is associated with the second user endpoint device has been received from the first user endpoint device, terminating the mobile terminating connection at the processing system when the access certificate is determined to be received from the first user endpoint device, identifying a private Internet Protocol address that is associated with the second user endpoint device when the access certificate is determined to be received from the first user endpoint device, and establishing a connection from the processing system to the second user endpoint device, separate from the mobile terminating connection from the first user endpoint device to the processing system, using the private internet protocol address of the second user endpoint device.

Systems and methods for managing domain name registrations in accordance with rules and regulations of a domain name verification system are disclosed. The disclosed technology enables a domain name verification system to regulate the registration of domain names in accordance with its own domain name registration policies. This disclosed system uses a “whitelist” domain name registry to register “whitelist domain names” once pre-approval to register a corresponding target domain name has been granted. In this manner, the whitelist domain name registry system acts as a repository for pre-approved domain name registrations and enables pre-qualified registrants (including potential or prospective registrants) to then register a target domain name.

A content provider has a plurality of content provider domain names, and a content delivery network (CDN) allocates a plurality of CDN domain names to the particular content provider. The content provider domain names are mapped to the CDN domain names. CDN domain names are bound to corresponding CDN clusters. The binding of the of CDN domain names to corresponding CDN clusters is modified.

Embodiments relate to systems, devices, and computing-implemented methods for generating domain name suggestions by obtaining a domain name suggestion input that includes textual data, segmenting the textual data into tokens, obtaining a list of possible affixes to the textual data, determining conditional probabilities for the possible affixes using a language model, ranking the list of possible affixes based on the conditional probabilities to generate a ranked list of affixes, and generating domain name suggestions based on the ranked list of affixes.

A system for allocating domain name acquisition resources is provided. The system performs a method comprising: obtaining, at a database, a list of domain names that are to be deleted during a first time window; updating a drop catch table in the database, wherein the drop catch table comprises a second list of domain names that are to be deleted; refreshing a cache in an application server that provides DNS services based on the drop catch table; obtaining, at the application server, a EPP command from a registrar to register a domain name from the drop catch table that is about to be deleted during a second time window; determining, based on the cache, that the domain name to be registered is available to be registered; updating a flag for the domain name in the cache indicating that the domain name is registered; and providing an acknowledgment to the registrar.

A system for managing network connected devices, comprising at least one hardware processor adapted to produce a plurality of unique device descriptors, each describing one of a plurality of network connected devices, by: for each of a plurality of device descriptors, each having a plurality of supported actions, and one or more domain device identifiers, each identifier associating the device descriptor with one of a plurality of management domains: for each of the plurality of management domains not associated with the device descriptor: instructing execution on a network connected device described by the device descriptor a domain identification query according to the descriptor's plurality of supported actions, to determine a new domain device identifier; identifying in the plurality of device descriptors a second device descriptor having a domain device identifier equal to the new domain device identifier; and merging the device descriptor with the second device descriptor.

Systems and methods of the present invention provide for one or more server computers communicatively coupled to a network and configured to: create a data table of characters, where each character in the data table is assigned a false Boolean value; for each character found in each domain name in a DNS file, update the Boolean value to true; receive a domain search request comprising a token and a TLD; generate candidate domain names using the token and the TLD; query the database to determine if any character in the domain name has the false Boolean value in the data table; and if so, remove the domain name from the candidate domain names.

Systems and methods of the present invention provide for one or more server computers communicatively coupled to a network and configured to: monitor a character stream; identify characters comprising a domain name request; identify a token in a language character map comprising the characters and associated with a language; generate, using a software translation engine, a translation of the first token into a second language; generate candidate domain names comprising: a domain name comprising the token; and a second domain name comprising the second token; modify, in real time, a user interface control to display the list of candidate domain names.

Systems and methods of the present invention provide for one or more server computers communicatively coupled to a network and configured to: receive a domain name request comprising a token and a TLD; identify a language of the token in a language map; generate candidate domain names in the language using the token and TLD; if at least of the candidate domain names comprising the TLD cannot be registered: generate, using a translation software engine, a translation of the first token into a second language; generate an alternative domain name comprising the second token and the TLD; and transmit the alternative domain name to the client computer.
