What is a server?
A server, is a computer, a computer, which is responsible for storing and providing information to their customers, in short the servers are computers with a lot of capacity, which store our information, but information that is only able to access through other computers , they are just called servers, because they tend to be at the services of computers, the servers must and must always be turned on, when servers are damaged that information disappears, so it is always good to have backup servers for our customers, and thus avoid an information catastrophe.
There are many types of servers among them the most used are;
Web servers; are those that store the data of web pages.
Print servers; are those that serve a network of computers, and customers, and queue the print job.

When someone asks "what is a server?" they’re talking about more than just a computer - it’s a dedicated system built to provide resources to other machines over a network and run 24/7 with high reliability. It’s the backbone of online services, from web hosting to streaming platforms. I found a detailed breakdown of this concept and how server hardware and software work together, plus real-world infrastructure insights at https://www.servers.com/news/blog/what-is-a-server . That kind of clarity, explaining both theory and practical mechanics, is what turns confusing tech into something you can actually apply in projects or business planning.
