| - | A Server is either a computer program or device providing services to other computer programs or devices. The users of the service is referred to as a client. Some examples of software servers are mail servers, database servers, web servers, application servers, etc. The physical device (i.e., computer) that hosts the software servers is also referred to as a server. The physical server can be dedicate to host a single software service (i.e., mail server) or it can be used to host multiple services. Complicating the issue is that sometimes a single software service might span across multiple physical servers. | + | A Server is either a computer program or device providing services to other computer programs or devices.
