Instagram is a photo and video sharing social network founded in 2010 by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger. Acquired by Facebook (now Meta) in 2012 for approximately $1 billion, it has grown to become one of the world's largest social media platforms with over 2 billion monthly active users as of 2021.

The platform's core features include Stories (temporary 24-hour content), Reels (short-form video competing with TikTok), direct messaging, and traditional photo/video posts. Instagram has become a dominant force in influencer marketing and e-commerce through features like shopping tags and in-app checkout. The platform also operates Threads, a text-based companion app launched in 2023.

Instagram's user base skews toward the 25-34 age demographic, with India leading in total users (over 200 million), followed by the United States and Brazil. The platform's DNS infrastructure is managed through Meta's global network, sharing nameservers with facebook.com and leveraging Meta's edge network for optimized content delivery across mobile devices.
