Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) es un servidor de nombres de Microsoft para NetBIOS, que mantiene una tabla con la correspondencia entre direcciones IP y nombres NetBIOS de ordenadores. Esta lista permite localizar rápidamente a otro ordenador de la red.

Al usar un servidor de nombres de internet de Windows en una red se evita el realizar búsquedas más laboriosas (como peticiones broadcast) para obtenerla, y se reduce de esta forma el tráfico de la red.

A partir de Windows 2000 WINS ha sido relegado en favor de DNS y Active Directory, sin embargo, sigue siendo necesario para establecer servicios de red con versiones anteriores de sistemas Microsoft.

En entornos Unix y GNU/Linux, Samba (programa) puede actuar también como servidor WINS.
