Web sever environmentA Web server is a program that uses HTTP (Hy.pdfaquacareser
Web sever environment:
A Web server is a program that uses HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) to serve the files that
form Web pages to users, in response to their requests, which are forwarded by their computers\'
HTTP clients. Dedicated computers and appliances may be referred to as Web servers as
well.The process is an example of the client/server model. All computers that host Web sites
must have Web server programs. Leading Web servers include Apache (the most widely-
installed Web server), Microsoft\'s Internet Information Server (IIS) and nginx
(pronouncedengine X) from NGNIX. Other Web servers include Novell\'s NetWare server,
Google Web Server (GWS) and IBM\'s family of Domino servers. Web servers often come as
part of a larger package of Internet- and intranet-related programs for serving email,
downloading requests for File Transfer Protocol (FTP) files, and building and publishing Web
pages. Considerations in choosing a Web server include how well it works with the operating
system and other servers, its ability to handle server-side programming, security characteristics,
and the particular publishing, search engine and site building tools that come with it.
Advantages of using a web server within your development environment:
Problems posed by web server environment and methods to solve:
Various high-profile hacking attacks have proven that web security remains the most critical
issue to any business that conducts its operations online. Web servers are one of the most
targeted public faces of an organization, because of the sensitive data they usually host. Securing
a web server is as important as securing the website or web application itself and the network
around it. If you have a secure web application and an insecure web server, or vice versa, it still
puts your business at a huge risk. Your company’s security is as strong as its weakest point.
Although securing a web server can be a daunting operation and requires specialist expertise, it is
not an impossible task. Long hours of research and an overdose of coffee and take away food,
can save you from long nights at the office, headaches and data breaches in the future. Irrelevant
of what web server software and operating system you are running, an out of the box
configuration is usually insecure. Therefore one must take some necessary steps in order to
increase web server security. Below is a list of tasks one should follow when securing a web
server.
1. Remove Unnecessary Services
Default operating system installations and configurations, are not secure. In a typical default
installation, many network services which won’t be used in a web server configuration are
installed, such as remote registry services, print server service, RAS etc. The more services
running on an operating system, the more ports will be left open, thus leaving more open doors
for malicious users to abuse. Switch off all unnecessary services and disable them, so next time
the server is rebooted, they .

Load-balancing web servers Load-balancing web serverswebhostingguy
The document discusses different approaches to load balancing web servers to address issues like scaling performance, tolerating failures, and rolling upgrades. It describes three common solutions: redirecting requests through a front-end server; using round-robin DNS to distribute requests; and employing an intelligent load balancer switch that can distribute requests based on server load and detect failures. Each approach has advantages and disadvantages related to ease of implementation, visibility to users, and ability to handle session state. The document also discusses network designs and protocols involved in load balancing, including TCP connection setup and teardown.
The document compares three methods for consolidating SQL Server databases: 1) multiple databases on a single SQL Server instance, 2) a single database on multiple SQL Server instances, and 3) hypervisor-based virtualization. It finds that consolidating multiple databases onto a single instance has the lowest direct costs but reduces security and manageability. Using multiple instances improves security but has higher resource needs. Hypervisor-based virtualization maintains security while enabling features like high availability, but has higher licensing costs. The document aims to help decide which approach best balances these technical and business factors for a given environment.
