\nIn this article.\"What the hell is a server?<\/b><\/span>The following is an introduction to the different types of servers and their uses.<\/p>\n
Although the word \"server\" is often heard, there are many people who have trouble giving a concrete answer when asked about servers. When implementing e-learning, it is essential to build a server. In addition to the basic server structure, functions, and features, this paper describes theDedicated and shared servers.<\/b>You can also learn more about the features of Content<\/p>\n <\/p>\n What is a Server?\"The computer that provides the service.<\/b><\/span>and written in English, it is calledServer<\/b>The result is the following.<\/p>\n The server is the computer of the company that provides the service, and is connected to the user via the Internet. \nBrief summary.<\/b> <\/p>\n Imagine that you are looking at a website on the Internet.<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n When you want to visit a specific website, you first type a search term into your web browser and press Enter to confirm. The server that stores the data for the website pages provides data such as images and HTML files for the requested website. \nThe sequence of events until a website is displayed<\/b> There are a lot of servers on the Internet, and by specifying the address and accessing it, we can display any data in our browser.<\/span> A physical server is a single server that physically exists, and is the computer itself that provides the service. \u21d2The physical server has an additionalThere are two types of servers: shared servers and dedicated servers.<\/b><\/span>It is done.<\/p>\n Shared server is a service where one server is used by multiple people. However, since the service is shared by multiple users, there are some disadvantages such as the inability to customize your own settings and design, and the possibility of affecting our system processing depending on how other users are using the service.<\/p>\n If you think of a shared server as an apartment with multiple residents, it would be easier to understand if you think of it as renting a room in an apartment.<\/span><\/p>\n \n Shared servers share a single server, while dedicated servers use a single, whole server. In addition, since the dedicated server has the authority to manage the server, the company can install software and change settings as needed. It would be easier to understand if you imagine that a dedicated server is renting a whole house.<\/span><\/p>\n \n <\/p>\n There are many different types of servers, and web services are made possible by the work of many servers. A server on the Web that returns data in response to requests from users' Web browsers (Chrome, Safari, etc.). \n <\/p>\n It is a server that provides mail sending and receiving services to users, stores mail sent to its own network and passes it to users, sends mail from its own network to other networks, and provides other functions related to sending and receiving mail. \n <\/p>\n The major role of the database server is to manage, store, update, delete and backup the data handled by the system in data storage. \n <\/p>\n DNS is a server that is essential for the smooth use of the Internet. Each website has an address, called an IP address, and it is the DNS server that converts this number into a domain so that the website can be easily identified by Internet users.<\/p>\n \n <\/p>\n When using e-learning to handle corporate information or confidential information, such as new employee training and in-house training<\/b> Since the company's own servers are used in a closed environment, there is less risk of information leaks than with shared servers used by an unspecified number of users, and security is also assured. I want to save the initial cost of e-learning!<\/b> For companies and organizations that want to test the effectiveness of e-learning implementation at a low cost, we recommend operating on a shared server.<\/b> \n learningBOX is an e-learning system that was created with a focus on making it easy for anyone to build a web-based learning environment. In addition, it is possible to set the materials to be distributed on a case-by-case basis according to the learners and their learning content, allowing for a flexible response.<\/p>\n With our e-learning, you can start e-learning according to your usage scene such as \"in-house training, certification exam, learning contents sales\".

What the heck is a server anyway?<\/h2>\n
![\"What](\"https:\/\/learningbox.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/2021-03-01_10-10-05.jpg\")
<\/p>\n

\n <\/p>\n
\n\u21d2 A computer that is responsible for providing various information, services, and data to other computers that are connected via the Internet.\n<\/p>\nThe relationship between servers and the Internet<\/b><\/h3>\n
![\"The](\"https:\/\/learningbox.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/2021-03-04_11-59-02.jpg\")
\nA server is a computer connected to a network and is responsible for providing its own data and services to other computers.
\nThe server works by receiving instructions from the client and returns the requested data or service to the client side.<\/p>\n
\nAt this time, we (the client) inquire the address of the website we want to display to the server that manages the address (IP address) on the web, and request to display it.<\/p>\n
\nThis series of mechanisms will display the relevant website.<\/p>\n
\n(1) Enter the \"search keyword\/URL\" into the web browser.
\nSend the URL to the DNS server and convert it to an IP address (address on the Internet).
\n(3) Access the web server of the corresponding IP address.
\nThe data of the web page is provided from the web server and displayed on the web browser.\n<\/p>\n
\n <\/p>\nServer Types and Uses<\/h2>\n
![\"elearning-server\"](\"https:\/\/learningbox.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/elearning-server.jpg\")
\nThere are two main types of servers: physical servers and virtual servers.
\nThis time we're going to focus on the physical server!
\n <\/p>\nWhat is a physical server?<\/h3>\n
\nIn terms of familiar objects, a personal computer is also a physical server.<\/p>\nShared server<\/b><\/h4>\n
\nSince a single server is used by multiple people, theOverwhelmingly cheaper than dedicated servers in terms of initial costs, annual and monthly fees, and other usage fees<\/b><\/span>be.<\/p>\n![\"elearning-server\"](\"https:\/\/learningbox.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/8ffc9c9f18a444fd2905d2de4cb970a5.jpg\")
\n<\/p>\n\u00a0Dedicated Server<\/b><\/h4>\n
\nThe advantage of a dedicated server is that the subscriber can use all the resources the server has!
\nYou can operate your site more stably because you have exclusive use of large disk space and a stable internet connection.<\/p>\n
\nOn the other hand, the disadvantage is that you have to operate and build the server yourself, and that it costs more than the aforementioned shared servers.<\/p>\n![\"elearning](\"https:\/\/learningbox.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/120a6e7aa4b529f697f48312559caae5.jpg\")
\n<\/p>\nSome useful server trivia you should know<\/h3>\n
\nEach of them has a different role, but the following servers are also closely related to the important functions of running e-learning.<\/p>\n1. Web server<\/b><\/h4>\n
\nHandles HTML files, etc., with a focus on HTTP.
\nThe web server stores files necessary for content, such as HTML, CSS, and image files.
\nIn general, when we refer to a server, we are often referring to a web server.<\/p>\n![\"eLearning-Web](\"https:\/\/learningbox.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/2021-03-01_14-08-41.jpg\")
\n<\/p>\n2. Mail server<\/b><\/h4>\n
\nThe receiving server uses IMAP and POP3, and the sending server uses a protocol (a promise) called SMTP to send and receive mail.<\/p>\n![\"E-Learning](\"https:\/\/learningbox.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/2021-03-01_13-59-44.jpg\")
\n<\/p>\nNo.3. Database server<\/b><\/h4>\n
\nA database server is used to store, overwrite, and extract data such as customer information as needed, and is an essential server for processing relatively large websites and applications.
\nSQL (MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc.) is used to extract the data.<\/p>\n![\"E-learning](\"https:\/\/learningbox.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/54998b8210feca26e997949672bbd8ea.jpg\")
\n<\/p>\nNo.4 DNS Server<\/b><\/h4>\n
\nDNS is an abbreviation for \"Domain Name System\" and is a system that links domain names to IP addresses.
\nA domain name is an address on the Internet and is an important clue for identifying the destination of a communication.<\/p>\n![\"DNS](\"https:\/\/learningbox.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/2021-03-04_14-15-10.jpg\")
\n<\/p>\nHow to choose a server that matches the scene of use<\/h2>\n
\nIf learner access is limited to the intranet, we recommend that you consider a dedicated server.<\/p>\n
\nIn addition, dedicated servers often have higher specifications than shared servers, making them suitable for operating high-load websites.
\nAn intranet is an \"internal network,\" that is, a network with a limited scope, such as within a company or university.<\/span>
\n <\/p>\n
\nIf you use a shared server, you can reduce the initial cost.
\nAlso, in the case of shared servers, there is the advantage of using an environment prepared by the contracting company, so you can use it without any specialized knowledge.
