Abstract

A method for synchronizing management of a plurality of domain names in a Domain Name System (DNS). The method comprises the following steps: receiving a request from a domain name registrant for an action as an operation on an object unique to a domain name of the DNS, the domain name having synchronized objects with another domain name being stored as a domain name bundle including the domain name in a domain name database; changing the object in the domain name database according to the action; identifying the another domain name in the domain name bundle; requesting a change to a corresponding object to the object for the another domain name with the action in order to propagate the operation performed on the object to the corresponding object, the corresponding object being unique to the another domain name; and forwarding a reported result of the action to the domain name registrant, the object and the corresponding object representing the synchronized objects by having the same parameter value, an owner to all domain names in the domain name bundle being the domain name registrant.
