Abstract
Registering client devices with backup servers by using domain name service records is described. A system stores a location of a backup server associated with a domain name into a domain name service record associated with the domain name. The system receives, from a client device, a domain name service query for the domain name. The system enables the client device to register with the backup server by providing the location of the backup server stored in the domain name service record to the client device.
