Technically speaking, in the world of IT, a Server can be a computer or a computer program that provides a special service for other computers. The computers that receive this service are called &#8220;Clients&#8221;.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It can be a normal PC that has Server programs on it. Also, there is another kind of Server that looks completely different. This Hardware is a type of computer and We put it in a rack in a data center.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1554\" src=\"https:\/\/airoserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Servers-in-racks.jpg\" alt=\"Servers in Racks\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Server <strong>Types:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>There are different ways of categorizing servers and one of them is by their usages.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By their usages:<\/strong><\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>One way of categorizing them is by their usages and the kind of services they provide. Here are some examples:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li><strong>File server:<\/strong> This is used for file sharing. It means that all the needed files in a network are located on it and every user on that network can have access to these files. You can set different access levels for each user.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Database Server:<\/strong> This is mainly used in organizations.It contains the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Database\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"database (opens in a new tab)\">database<\/a> of a specific service or software that all users are using on their computers. So, we have all of our data in one place.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Application Server:<\/strong> It is kind of the same as no.2 but the only difference is that in this kind, you don&#8217;t have to install the program on every user&#8217;s computer. The program is on the Application server and everyone can use it.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Game Server:<\/strong> This is a kind of Application server but only used for games. The game is installed on a Game server and all users on that network can access the game and play. So now you might kind of figure how an online multiplayer game works.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Print:<\/strong> All the printers on a network are on this and users can access their required printer there.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Media:<\/strong> This kind is for when it has a video, Audio or any kind of media file is on it and users can access it from there.<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Communication:<\/strong> as it&#8217;s clear by its name, each user that connects to this, is an endpoint and is able to communicate with other users by sending texts and etc.<\/li>\r\n<li>Computing: When our computer&#8217;s processor is not enough for a specific process, we can connect to it to use its processors.<\/li>\r\n<li>Web server: This is used for web hosting and in our earlier posts we have explained completely about it.<\/li>\r\n<li>Proxy Server: This can help you as a middle man and we&#8217;ve explained about this in our earlier posts.<\/li>\r\n<li>Mail: This kind has webmail services on it and you use it for sending and receiving emails.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1557\" src=\"https:\/\/airoserver.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/images_mailserver.jpg\" alt=\"Mail server\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Another way of categorizing is according to web hosting services.
