Google Public DNS

dns.google is the official domain for Google Public DNS, a free, global DNS resolution service operated by Google. It serves as a public recursive DNS resolver that translates domain names into IP addresses.

Key Features

Primary IP addresses:8.8.8.8and8.8.4.4(IPv4), with IPv6 support available
No redirection: Returns accurate DNS results without filtering or redirecting queries
Speed optimized: Infrastructure designed for fast, low-latency DNS resolution
Security focused: Protection against DNS-based attacks and cache poisoning

Supported Protocols

Traditional DNS over UDP/TCP (port 53)
DNS over HTTPS (DoH) — encrypted queries via HTTPS
DNS over TLS (DoT) — encrypted queries via TLS

Usage

The dns.google website provides a web interface for testing DNS queries, flushing cached records, and accessing setup documentation. Google Public DNS is one of the most widely used public DNS services globally, launched in December 2009 as part of Google's effort to make the web faster and more secure.

For authoritative DNS hosting (rather than recursive resolution), Google offers the separate Cloud DNS service.
