Abstract
Systems and methods for updating a Domain Name System (DNS) registry are disclosed. Embodiments perform operations including maintaining a domain name record of a DNS registrant recorded in a database of the DNS registry by a primary DNS interface. The operations also include receiving a request to update the domain name record of the DNS registrant via a secondary DNS interface. The operations further include modifying the domain name record of the DNS registrant in the DNS database in accordance with the request.
