DNS hosting service is the service than runs DNS servers.

DNS hosting service is the service than runs DNS servers. Most, but not all, domain name registrars include DNS hosting service with registration. Free DNS hosting services also exist.

DNS hosting service is optimal when the provider has multiple servers in various geographic locations that provide resilience and minimize latency for clients around the world. By operating DNS nodes closer to end users, DNS queries travel a much shorter distance, resulting in faster Web address resolution speed.

Why we have always two ips as DNS Entry

Why we have two IPs for dns entry like in Google DNS - 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 Or as in OpenDNS - 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 Also in router settings, it shows always 2 ips for DNS. Any specific purpose for the same. Just curious.
