Scenario
Tour Management Company wants to host their web based application. So, they need to install
and configure Server Operating System. For this, which server operating system is more easy,
secured and appropriate. So, solved the above scenario by documenting all practical
configuration and installation as well as hosting the tour management website.
Solution:
I have used “Windows Server 2016” for solving the above scenario. As well as I have installed
“Ubuntu Server” for learning.

Introduction
We are living in an era where information technology plays a critical role in business.
Client/Server is one of them. A client-server network is designed for end-users, called clients,
to access resources such as files, songs, video collections, or some other service from a central
computer called a server. It helps business to share information among multiple branches. It
helps organization to exist in competitive advantage. Client/Server computing is the most
effective source for the tools that empower employee with authority and responsibility. A
competitive global economy will ensure obsolescence and obscurity to those who are unwilling
to compete. The client/server model brings out a logical perspective of distributed corporative
processing where a server handles and processes all client requests. This can be also viewed as
a revolutionary milestone to the data processing industry. A client-server network built with an
Intel Xeon-based server is scalable for your needs, allowing room for growth as your business
grows.
Project Outcome
The successful of each Project depends on Outcome. After configuring the Server Installation.
I have hosted locally my website. At present the Website run smoothly. User can access in
website easily. Some advantages of the Project.
 Centralization of Control: It helps to access, resources and integrity of the data that
are controlled by the dedicated server so that a program or unauthorized can’t damage
system.
 Easy Maintenance: It distributes the roles and responsibilities to several standalone
computers admin who can replace, repair, upgrade, or even move a server while
customer will not be affected by that change.
 Improved Collaboration: The server in a client-server network can act as a
centralized hub for storing and sharing files. This configuration allows multiple users
to access files and makes changes to a single centralized copy. This also helps minimize
version control issues that often arise from managing multiple versions of the same file.
 Remote Access: Servers support remote access which enables employees, partners,
and customers, to access data on the server without physically being in front of the
system.
There are technologies sufficiently developed, designed for the paradigm of C / S to ensure
security in transactions, interface friendliness, and ease of use.

Requirement Analysis
The requirement of Hardware & Software is various that depends on User.
Hardware Requirement: (30 - 49 Users)
 At least 32GB RAM
 Disk Volume for OS, RAID 1,128GB
 Disk Volume for Data, RAID 10,512GB
 1GB NIC
Software Requirement:
 Windows Server 2016 / Ubuntu Server 16.04.3 LTS
Tools Requirement:
 Oracle Virtual Box
Why do we use Oracle Virtual Box?
I have used oracle virtual machine for my server installation. It is easy to maintain and It gives
notification at the time of facing problem. Some Advantages for which I have used this virtual
Box that are given below.
 Faster Server provisioning: We can quickly clone an image, master template, or
existing virtual machine to get a server up and running within a few minutes.
 Security Purposes: We can create a virtual machine running Windows. We can be sure
there are no spyware or Trojans that will capture our password.
 Server Consolidation: Virtualization can help us to reduce capital investment.
Why do we use server?
A Server is designed and intended to provide services and run server applications under heavy
workloads, left unattended and self-managing most the time. There are verities facilities of
Client Server those are given below:
 Duel processors either equipped or capable
 Redundant hard drives or power supplies
 Hot swappable components
 Are scalable; to meet current, as well as future needs
 Can process data faster and more efficiently
 File and Network security

 Increased reliability
 Centralized data storage and shared resources
 Virus Management
 Centralized Backup
Client-Server Architecture Diagram for the above Project
The above diagram is my “Tour Management System’s” Server Diagram. Here The Clients
request to Server then Server response according to Clients. Finally, Sever gives feedback to
the Clients.

Project Demonstration
Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS Server Edition Installation Demonstration in Virtual Box:
STEP-1: On the first step we have to visit the “https://www.ubuntu.com/download/server”
link and download the latest version of Ubuntu Server ISO image on our computer.
STEP-2: Run the Virtual Box. Then press “New Icon” from The Virtual Box.
STEP-3: Fill the Name Text, Select the Linux from Type Selection Option. Then Select The
Turbolinux (64-bit)

Facing Problem during Project
I was faced with many problems during configuration of Client/Server. Some problems that we
have faced are given below briefly.
 The problem of communicating with the Microsoft Dynamic CRM server.
 At time of hosting, the 404 HTTP Error occurred for PHP Framework.
 Package Installer Problem for DLL.
 The vector works server software does not launch.
 The Client Software doesn’t launch properly.
 A product module was installed, but it isn’t working properly.
 New Client licenses are not available.
 The Client Vectors programs shut down, but the license count doesn’t change.
Future Perspective
Small businesses can significantly benefit from a networked infrastructure. Networks enable
small businesses to enhance their collaboration and share resources such as file and print
services. Some future perspective of Client Server is given below:
 In the future, I will use the dynamic report in the website.
 I will add the dynamic database server in this website.
 I will add the email system in this website.
Conclusion
Client-Server computing is the logical extension of modular programming with fundamental
assumption that separation of a huge program into its constituent parts ("modules") that can
create the possibility for further modification, easier development and better maintainability.
The purpose of a server is to share data as well as to share resources and distribute work.
Client–server systems are today most frequently implemented by (and often identified with)
the request–response model: a client sends a request to the server, which performs some action
and sends a response back to the client, typically with a result or acknowledgement.
