[[The World's Billionaires|The]] '''Registration Data Access Protocol''' ('''RDAP''') is a [[Computer networking|computer network]] [[communications protocol]] standardized by a working group at the [[Internet Engineering Task Force]] in 2015, after experimental developments and thorough discussions. It is a successor to the [[WHOIS]] protocol, used to look up relevant registration data from such Internet resources as [[___domain name]]s, [[IP address]]es, and [[Autonomous system (Internet)|autonomous system numbers]].
While WHOIS essentially retrieves free text, RDAP delivers data in a standard, machine-readable [[JSON]] format.<ref>{{cite IETF
