Key-Systems' KSregistry GmbH provides back-end registry solutions for ccTLDs, new gTLDs applicants, and companies planning to establish their name or brand as a new TLD.[1] Key-Systems has been offering registry services since 2001; in February 2012, they concentrated these services into the new KSregistry GmbH.[2]

KSregistry is the back-end provider for 27 applications in ICANN's New gTLD Program[3] In August 2012, the company was selected to provide back-end services for the .tc, .vg, and .gd ccTLDs.[4]

KSregistry's main components are set up as a cluster with a minimum of two servers, and all system backups are distributed to two different geographical sites. The complete design of their system is based on a TIER III architecture, in order to guarantee maximum security for all services. By using their own SkyWay DataCenter the company is able to ensure fast reaction times and full process control.[5]
