1. LO1: Explain server technologies and management
services associated with hosting and managing websites.
P1: Identify the purpose and types of DNS, including
explanation on how domain names are organized and
managed.
P2: Explain the purpose and relationships between
communication protocols, server hardware, operating
systems and web server software with regards to
designing, publishing and accessing a website.
M1: Evaluate the impact of common web development
technologies and frameworks with regards to website
design, functionality and management.
M2: Review the influence of search engines on website
performance and provide evidence-based support for
improving a site’s index value and rank through search
engine optimization.
2. LO2: Categories website technologies, tools and software
used to develop websites.
P3: Discuss the capabilities and relationships between
front-end and back-end website technologies and explain
how these relate to presentation and application layers.
P4: Discuss the difference between online website
creation tools and custom built sites with regards to
design flexibility, performance, functionality, User
Experience (UX) and User Interface (UI).
M3: Evaluate a range of tools and techniques available
to design and develop a custom-built website.
3. LO3: Utilize website technologies, tools and techniques
with good design principles to create a multipage
website.
P5: Create a design document for a branded, multipage
website supported with medium fidelity wireframes and
a full set of client and user requirements.
, M4: Compare and contrast the multipage website
created to the design document.
4. LO4: Create and use a Test Plan to review the
performance and design of multiple page website.
P7: Create a suitable Test Plan identify key performance
areas and use it to review the functionality and
performance of your website.
M5: Evaluate the Quality Assurance (QA) process and
review how it was implemented during your design and
development stages.

P1: Identify the purpose and types of DNS, including explanation on how
domain names are organized and managed.
Purpose of DNS.
DNS is Domain Name Server which hostname of an IP address for the website. A DNS is
used for the website so that the user can easily remember it and can visit on that domain
name server. For example: Nowadays user visits many websites in a day through their
domain name server, if there were only IP address instead of DNS it would be difficult
for user remember every IP address for visiting that website. So, DNS makes the user
work easy and websites also get many users.
The DNS helps the humans to easily communicate websites like if you want to go
theverge.com website we need write the IP address like 192.145.10.20, but through
domain name server it becomes easy we just need to write URL of it like
www.theverge.com.
Types of DNS:
The domain name server is categorized in four types:
Recursive Resolver:
o A DNS recursive resolver is the middleman between the client (browser) and
DNS (website server). The DNS recursive resolver is responsible for providing
the IP address to a domain name server that has been requested by the host.
o If a client has DNS query request, then the recursive resolver will get a response
with cache data or it will go to Authoritative Server.
Authoritative Server:
o Authoritative Server is responsible for providing the correct IP address when
DNS recursive resolver does not get cache data support. It is a high-level server in
DNS server hierarchy which holds information about the domain’s names.
o If a client has DNS query request, if DNS recursive resolver does not have cache
data support of that DNS then it will go to the authoritative server to find the
domain name and get the client land on the correct website.
Root Server:
o The root server is first step in process of translating the domain name server into
IP address to understand by computer. The DNS root sever extracts the Top-level
Domain (TLD) extension like .com, .org, .net and many others.
o There only 13 roots sever worldwide for organization like U.S. Army Labs,
ICANN, NASA Ames Research Center.
