The process of typing 'google' in your browser and pressing enter involves several steps:
1. DNS Lookup: Your computer uses DNS servers to resolve the domain name 'google.com' into an IP address.
2. TCP/IP Connection: Your browser establishes a TCP/IP connection with Google's server, ensuring a reliable connection for data transfer.
3. Firewall and Encryption: A firewall screens data and HTTPS encryption adds a layer of security to protect your data during transmission.
4. Backend Processing: The request is directed to Google's load balancer, then to web servers for processing static content, and potentially to application servers for handling dynamic components.
