Recently our area experienced a significant weather event. &nbsp;Our city was without power for as much as a week and as many as 250,000 folks.<br />
<br />
We host our own DNS servers and they along with mail and VoIP communications were down for 7 days. &nbsp;We purchase our internet service from provider A, our domain from provider B, our web hosting from provider C.<br />
<br />
When the lights went out users could no longer resolve our website (I assume because our DNS servers were down).<br />

My question is: &nbsp;Within this scenario what is the best/easiest way to insure our website is still being resolved to the rest of the world?<br />

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network.

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.
