What is .คอม?
.คอม entered the DNS root zone on July 28, 2015, 11 years ago. It came out of ICANN's New gTLD Program, the 2012 application round that grew the root from 22 generic TLDs to well over a thousand.
In the DNS, .คอม is stored as the ASCII string xn--42c2d9a (its "A-label"). Browsers and apps that support IDNs show the native script instead.
VeriSign Sarl also runs 10 other TLDs, including .कॉम, .点看, .קום, .नेट and .كوم.
On the technical side, .คอม is served by 4 authoritative name servers, every one of them reachable over IPv6. It is also DNSSEC-signed: the root zone carries a DS record for .คอม, which lets validating resolvers check its answers cryptographically. Registration data is published over RDAP and WHOIS (the WHOIS server is whois.nic.xn--42c2d9a).
