Open-source domain registry platform. Revolutionizing ccTLD and gTLD management with Namingo.

Introduction

Namingo is a state-of-the-art open-source domain registry platform, diligently crafted to serve ccTLD, gTLD, brand and private domain registries. Written from scratch in 2023, it adheres to the latest standards, ensuring a cutting-edge experience.

Namingo is optimally designed for the upcoming ICANN application round, providing a straightforward and easily updatable platform. Its contemporary architecture and intuitive interface make it an ideal choice for efficient and modern domain registry management.

Get Involved

We're on a mission to make Namingo the best it can be, and we need your expertise! Whether you're adept in development, have a keen eye for design, or simply brim with innovative ideas, your contribution can make a world of difference.

Current Status:

We've completed the core development of Namingo, including WHOIS, DAS, EPP, RDAP servers, and control panel. The system handles 150,000 domains efficiently (on a VPS with 2 cores, 4GB of RAM, and a 100GB SSD) and has passed basic QA and security tests.

Namingo currently supports Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and Debian 12, accommodating both MariaDB/MySQL databases. We are eagerly inviting volunteers to assist in testing and developing installation manuals for AlmaLinux, Alpine Linux, FreeBSD 14, and Windows, encompassing setups with either MariaDB/MySQL or PostgreSQL databases.

We're currently in the phase of external testing and are aware that there might be bugs or incomplete features in the project. If you're able to identify and fix any issues, we encourage you to submit a pull request. If you're not sure how to fix an issue, please don't hesitate to report it to us, and we'll work on addressing it. Your contributions and feedback are valuable in helping us improve Namingo. For any inquiries or suggestions, feel free to reach out.
