Connected: High Performance Servers

July 24th, 2008 by admin

A server is a computer system in a network that is shared by multiple users and high performance servers ensure that there is never a period of disconnection. Servers come in all sizes from x86-based PCs to IBM mainframes. A server is just a computer that’s been selected and probably optimized to perform a specific task in service to others and it’s that task that makes all the difference. A server is designed to manage, store, send and process data 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and 365 days a year. Thus, servers need to be far more reliable then their desktop counterparts.
