SERVERS Network servers are performance engineered supercomputers designed to support a multiplicity of functions, services and users. Most desktop computers support one application running at a time, while servers support multiple tasks running simultaneously. These machines require complex server software, multiple processors, extra-wide data buses, gigabytes of ram and terabytes of data storage. Security and redundancy are also important: his includes data redundancy via backups, electrical-quality filtering and monitoring, hot-swap replacement parts (cards, power supplies, controllers, ports, drives), system performance monitoring, security features. Expertise and experience are needed when investing in these expensive and complicated workhorse machines.
