A server is a computer program or equipment that delivers services to other programs known as clients or customers. The term "client-server architecture" refers to the overall setup. The architecture's single process is shared across all device or program computing processes. It mostly handles network resources and works on the network. The server has no further jobs that can be given to it, and it does not do any other tasks.

1. WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF SERVERS?
A server is a computer program or equipment that delivers services to other programs
known as clients or customers. The term "client-server architecture" refers to the overall
setup. The architecture's single process is shared across all device or program computing
processes. It mostly handles network resources and works on the network. The server
has no further jobs that can be given to it, and it does not do any other tasks.

2. APPLICATION
SERVER
Instead of running apps locally on client PCs,
application servers run them. Application
servers are frequently used to operate
resource-intensive apps that are used by a
large number of people. This eliminates the
requirement that each client has sufficient
resources to run the programs. It also
eliminates the need to install and maintain
software on multiple devices rather than just
one.

3. MAIL SERVER
Mail servers are a popular type of application
server. Mail servers accept emails submitted to a
user and keep them until a client on behalf of that
user requests them. Having an email server allows
you to keep a single machine configured and
connected to the network at all times instead of
requiring each client machine to have its own email
subsystem running at all times, it is then ready to
send and receive messages.

4. PROXY SERVER
A proxy server connects a client and a server. A proxy server
receives the request from the client and isolates either the
clients or the servers for security reasons. It sends the
request to another server or process rather than
responding to the client. After receiving the response from
the second server, the proxy server replies to the original
client as if it were responding independently. The client and
the responding server do not need to connect directly to
each other in this manner.

5. WEB SERVER
A web server is one of the most common server types on the
market today. A web server is a type of application server that
hosts programs and data that users request via the Internet or
through an intranet. Requests for web pages or other web-based
services are sent to web servers by browsers operating on client
computers. Apache web servers, Microsoft IIS (Internet
Information Services) servers, and Nginx servers most often use
web servers.

6. VIRTUAL
SERVER
Virtual servers still need hardware, but that hardware
now runs a hypervisor, which is a distinct operation. A
full operating system, such as Microsoft's Hyper-V,
continues to run on the hardware itself in some
circumstances. In other circumstances, hypervisors
known as bare-metal hypervisors can be placed directly
on server hardware. In both cases, the hardware is
commonly dispersed throughout a network of blade
servers, networked storage, and power supplies, making
it impossible to identify where one server ends and
another begins.
