These systems are highly structured and essentially consist of a central processing unit, which is also known as the host and all the &#8220;intelligence&#8221; of houses, and the &#8220;dumb&#8221; terminals, which are only used as user devices in the workplace and in practice only for input and output of data are used.<\/p>\n<p>In the Unix environment, differentiation at this time is clear, here are (usually graphical) workstations and workstation operating systems and their software (mostly console-based) distinction servers and server operating systems and associated software. However, by now are both expressions &#8211; at least colloquially and in connection with hardware &#8211; practically synonymous.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Server_as_a_term_for_software_client-server_concept\"><\/span><strong>Server as a term for software \/ client-server concept<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A server is a program that is offering services. As part of the client-server model , a different program, the client (customer), use this service. The server is ready to respond at any time to contact a client. The rules of communication (format, call the server and the meaning of exchanged between server and client data), called protocol and are each defined for a service.<\/p>\n<p>In general, the concept can be extended to a group of servers that offers a set of services. Examples: mail server (extended) <strong>web server<\/strong>, application server, database server.<\/p>\n<p>In practice, since servers usually collected run on specific machines, it has become common to refer to this computer as a server itself.
