A small business has decided to implement a new server to manage their customer database and other applications. What is the main purpose of this server in the company's network?
To provide a connection between different networks
To operate as an individual user’s personal computer
To host and manage resources for multiple users in a network
The main purpose of a server in this scenario is to host and manage resources such as databases, applications, and services that clients or users can access over the network. In contrast, a workstation is designed for individual use and cannot serve multiple requests from clients simultaneously. A router connects different networks and does not directly host resources, while a printer is merely a peripheral device for producing physical copies.
