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 operate as an individual user’s personal computer
To host and manage resources for multiple users in a network
To produce physical documents and images
To provide a connection between different networks
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.
