Types of Servers: 2 - Servers

Applications Servers:
  • They are the part of the applications server client/server and the data, available for each client.
  • For example, the servers store huge quantities of data that are structured to facilitate their recovery. In a server such as this, the data or file are loaded to the computer that made the request. A client application running locally would have access to that data in the application server.
  • Instead of all the database be downloaded from the server to his local computer, only the search results of the would be loaded on it.

Web Servers:

  • They manipulate the data flow and e-mail messages between the server's own network and other networks, mainframe computers or remote users using modems or telephone lines to dial in to the server.
  • The folders services servers enable users to find, store and provide security to the network information. The planning for multiple servers becomes important in an expanded network. The planner should consider any anticipated growth in the network, so that their use is not interrupted if the function of a specific server needs to be modified.

Print Server:

  • They generate the access of the user and the use of resource files and printer.
  • For example, if you run a word processing application, such as Word, it would be run on your computer. The text processing document stored in this type of server is loaded in the computer memory so you can edit it or use it locally.
  • In other words, the print servers are intended for the storage of files and data.
