| | Before the Internet became a global network connecting millions of devices, it was a simple research experiment connecting a handful of institutions. In the beginning, the number of unique internet addresses could be measured in the tens. As the network expanded that number quickly grew into the hundreds and thousands and it became difficult to remember and type in IP addresses for each of these hosts. To manage the growing number of network hosts, a simple text file, called HOSTS.txt recorded each host and their IP address. To add your name to the hosts file, you needed to send an e-mail describing the changes you wanted to apply. The authority for the HOSTS.txt file would apply these changes once or twice a week and anyone who wanted to grab the updated list would periodically FTP to the canonical source, grab the latest file, and update their own list of hosts. Naturally, as this small network expanded into, and was eventually replaced by, the Internet, this solution became untenable - there were just too many hosts to keep track of, keep consistent, and to serve from a single canonical file using FTP and manual updates. HOSTS.txt did not scale.
