Internet-working servers compared

## Introduction

Internetworking is a comprehensive term for all forms of concepts, generic devices and technologies that allow people and their computers to communicate across computer networks. In the case of this section there was a lot of focus directed towards servers that offer a diverse range of products such as email servers or database servers. As well as that there are other types of technologies that companies will use to help people gain access to the internet, these being name ISPs (internet service providers).

### About

There has been a vast arrange of different type of internetworking servers discussed due to that comparison will have to be broken down to some degree. Servers such as email, media, proxy, and news servers will be compared. I also will analyse further the world wide web and file transmission protocol.

Servers are computers that will provide a service to a user when demanded. This is a generic term and servers have been various different uses. Email servers facilitate the process of sending and receiving mail behind the scenes. These servers will find the address of the destination and transfer those files accordingly. Database servers and others like email servers work in a similar way. These are computers that are designed for a single task that usually a single basic computer couldn't operate by itself. By using dedicated servers for databases or news, massive amounts of resources can be saved on computers and used for more personalized tasks. Servers as they are will differ from computers in many ways. For one they require high amounts of RAM compared to a standard computer and cpus designed to handle server type platforms compared to the standard desktop cpus. The need of a gpu and a sound card is redundant with a server. The comparisons of servers are mainly down to the tasks they're required to do. Database servers in large companies will have to process high quantities of information and be in demand constantly a local new station that has their own news server won't necessarily need a powerful sever to handle news articles. In terms of resource consumption on the whole tasks which will be in demand on servers more will require some form of constant overseeing just to make sure that errors can be proactively and retroactively fixed.

The file transmission protocol is designed for the exchanging of files across the internet, which leads me onto the world wide web which has great appeal in many thanks of the FTP. The world wide web is essentially a collection of pages scripted in a mark-up language generally HTML that are linked together. What makes the web so popular is the content that it can deliver. Creating a website now that offers some form of service isn't too difficult as it used to be there is plenty of expertise for someone with an idea to create something potentially great whether that may be a music or video downloading site. FTP will enhance the experience that the web delivers by allowing users to transfer files such as a video file from a media server to the users end point computer. Servers that perform tasks according to the demands of the user isn't limited to the internal environment. People who browse the web and want to access a variety of websites and their services will be asking a server for this action to take place. A lot of the internetworking servers that have been discussed could be labeled as content deliverers. Services like the web, FTP and ISPs provide the necessary tools for that content to be sent to the user at home.
