As fast as Verisign Inc., the corporation that controls the .com shared registry, put the brakes on the expiring domains industry, it has taken them off again. They have announced a short-term technical solution which will allow for the immediate resumption of batch domain releases. From the 30th August onwards, 100,000+ names will drop in a matter of days. This many names have never dropped in such a short space of time before, so we are looking at a unique event which may never happen again – the ‘mother of all domain drops’ if you like.
与控制.com共享注册表的公司Verisign Inc.一样快地阻止即将到期的域名行业 ,它又使它们再次摆脱了困境。 他们宣布了一项短期技术解决方案 ,该解决方案将允许立即恢复批处理域版本。 从8月30日起,几天之内将删除100,000多个名称。 如此众多的名字从未在如此短的时间内消失过,因此我们正在寻找一个独特的事件,这种事件可能再也不会发生了–如果您愿意,“所有领域的母亲都将消失”。
But before we take a detailed look at this massive drop, let’s see what Verisign have actually done to help ensure the smooth running of the shared registry for this and future drops.
但是,在我们详细讨论这一庞大的删除操作之前,让我们先看看Verisign实际做了哪些工作,以帮助确保此删除操作和将来删除操作的共享注册表的平稳运行。
The solution they’ve implemented is quite complex. It involves three distinct ‘session pools’, where previously there was just the one. The first pool is called the ‘Guarantee Pool’ and guarantees each ICANN registrar 15 simultaneous connections to the shared registry. No ‘intensive batch processing’ (name-grabbing) will be permitted in this pool.
他们实施的解决方案非常复杂。 它涉及三个不同的“会话池”,以前只有一个。 第一个池称为“保证池”,可确保每个ICANN注册服务商15个同时连接到共享注册管理机构。 此池中不允许进行“密集的批处理”(抢名)。
The second pool is called the ‘Overflow Pool’ and is a first-come first-served pool of additional sessions. Again, no name-grabbing is permitted in this pool – it’s intended for normal registrar activity. The third pool, called the ‘Automated Batch Pool’ is the most interesting. It has been designed with name-grabbing in mind, and registrars will actually use a completely separate host-name to access it.
第二个池称为“溢出池”,是其他会话的先到先服务池。 同样,此池中不允许使用任何名称-旨在用于正常的注册服务商活动。 最有趣的是第三个池,称为“自动批处理池”。 它在设计时就考虑了名字的获取,注册服务商实际上将使用完全独立的主机名来访问它。
So what happens if a registrar attempts to abuse the new system? Thankfully this time, Verisign have thought of this eventuality and announced a series of measures which should punish any registrars that fail to abide by the rules. In particular, they plan to deal harshly with any registrar using the Guarantee or Overflow Pool for name-grabbing purposes, by limiting their access to these pools. If a registrar continues to use them for name-grabbing purposes, they will eventually be blocked from using either pool for 30 days. It’s a serious punishment for most registrars, though maybe not a huge disincentive for the few registrars that seem to concentrate almost exclusively on grabbing domain names, rather than more normal domain registrations.
那么,如果注册服务商试图滥用新系统会怎样? 值得庆幸的是,这次,威瑞信(Verisign)考虑到了这种可能性,并宣布了一系列措施,该措施应惩处任何不遵守规则的注册服务商。 尤其是,他们计划通过限制对这些注册池的访问,严厉与任何使用担保或溢出池进行注册的注册商进行合作。 如果注册服务商继续使用它们来获取名称,最终将禁止它们使用任何一个池30天。 对于大多数注册服务商而言,这是一个严峻的惩罚,尽管对于似乎只专注于抢夺域名而不是更常规的域名注册的少数注册商而言,这可能不是一个很大的障碍。
One curious by-product of the new system is that the days of the 6.30am domain goldrush are over. Verisign have moved the drop time to 2.00pm EDT, presumably because this is more convenient for them and their American-based customers. They have also stated that all names will drop within a strict, 15-minute period that begins at 2.00pm.
新系统的一个令人好奇的副产品是6.30am域淘金热的时代已经结束。 威瑞信已将下降时间更改为美国东部时间下午2:00,这可能是因为这对他们及其美国客户更加方便。 他们还声明,所有名称将在从下午2:00开始的严格的15分钟内删除。
How effective the new solution will be only time will tell. Verisign’s last attempt at a technical fix proved totally inadequate, but this new solution looks to have been thought out much more thoroughly. If it works, it will see all ICANN registrars receive adequate access to the shared resources of the registry, and allow them to carry out their business activities without worrying about what time of day it is, or what other registrars are up to.
新解决方案只有时间才能证明效果。 威瑞信最后一次尝试技术修复的尝试被证明是不够的,但是这种新的解决方案似乎已经被更彻底地考虑了。 如果可行,它将看到所有ICANN注册服务商都可以访问注册管理机构的共享资源,并允许他们进行业务活动,而不必担心一天中的什么时间或其他注册服务商在做什么。
Another thing worth noting is that this solution has already been identified by Verisign as one for the short-term. They still plan to implement a completely new expiring domains system in the long-term. However, just how different the long-term solution will be is anyone’s guess at present.
另一点值得注意的是,Verisign已将这种解决方案确定为短期解决方案。 他们仍计划长期实施一个全新的即将到期的域系统。 然而,目前尚无人猜测长期解决方案将有何不同。
OK, so that’s the technical details over with. If you want to get in on the expiring domains game, and in particular, grab one or more of the names that will expire in the mother of all drops, how should you go about it? In Goldrush Part 4 I discussed the Snap-Back(TM) service provided by SnapNames, which allows anyone to ‘back order’ a domain name on a first-come, first-served basis. As many of you have pointed out, this service only really comes into its own when you know which names are going to be dropped and when.
好的,这就是技术细节。 如果您想加入即将到期的域名游戏,尤其是要抢占所有掉落者之母中将要到期的一个或多个名称,您应该如何处理? 在Goldrush的第4部分中,我讨论了SnapNames提供的Snap-Back™服务,该服务允许任何人以先到先得的方式对域名进行“反向订购”。 正如您中许多人所指出的,只有当您知道要删除哪些名称以及何时删除该服务时,该服务才真正发挥作用。
How can you find that out? You’ll need to subscribe to an expiring domains service. Domainsbot is the market leader, and has been widely featured in the media, including the New York Times and USA Today. For a subscription fee of $18.95 per month or $8.95 a week, they’ll allow you to perform keyword searches on millions of domain names that are on hold, soon to expire, or expired. So, for instance, within seconds you can see all the on-hold domain names that have the word ‘art’ in them, or all the soon-to-drop domains with less than 15 characters that contain the word ‘casino’. You also get twice-daily emails with new names. This means you can tap into up-to-the-minute information on the registration status of all the dot coms, dot nets, and dot orgs in existence. It’s great information for anyone who wants to research and register expiring domain names.
你怎么发现的? 您需要订阅即将到期的域服务。 Domainsbot是市场领导者,并已在媒体上广泛报道,包括《纽约时报》和《今日美国》。 只需每月支付18.95美元或每周8.95美元的订阅费,他们便可以让您对处于暂停状态,即将过期或过期的数百万个域名执行关键字搜索。 因此,例如,您可以在几秒钟内看到其中所有带有“艺术”字样的保留域名,或者所有包含少于15个字符的立即下降的域名中包含“赌场”字样的域名。 您还会收到每天两次使用新名称的电子邮件。 这意味着您可以利用有关所有现有.com,.net和.org的注册状态的最新信息。 对于任何想研究和注册即将到期的域名的人来说,这都是非常有用的信息。
For your information, a few of the names that will become available during the mother of all drops are:
