1. A system comprising:
a processing system of a device comprising one or more processors; and
a memory system comprising one or more computer-readable media, wherein the one or more computer-readable media contain instructions that, when executed by the processing system, cause the processing system to perform operations comprising:
receiving a dotless domain resolution request from a requesting device;
determining a contextual data from the dotless domain resolution request;
determining a resolution rule from a plurality of resolution rules based on the contextual data; and
resolving the dotless domain resolution request by applying the contextual data and the determined resolution rule.
