A server is a computer or device that manages network resources for your business. It handles tasks like:
Servers let you control multiple devices from one central location instead of managing each device separately. For example, a CCTV server lets you manage all security cameras from a single control panel. Why does security matter? Different server functions need different levels of security. When you mix high-security and low-security functions on the same server, you weaken the protection for sensitive operations. The key rule: Use one server for one primary function. For example, never put a database (high security) on the same server as a public website (lower security). The database needs stronger protection, which can be compromised when sharing space with public-facing services. |
