Servers & PCs

Depending upon the size of your organisation you may decide that a server just the device you need. So what does a server offer you?

For smaller organisations the usual prime motivation is to provide a central place to store data where it can be easily shared within your organisation, and centrally backed up. Similarly with email services, a server can act as a central distribution point for all company emails, distributing them to the individual users.

Larger organisations may deploy one or more servers, where each server provides a dedicated function, or service the needs of dedicated workgroups, especially remote users.

Servers themselves tend to be more robust machines than standard desktop PCs. They are build to provide non-stop service, usually running 24/7, with built-in redundancy for the main parts such as dual processors, dual power supplies, and RAID array hard drive arrangements. Their operating systems tend to be more complex and require a different skill set to that of the PC. This in turn means that an organisation will need to employ a server "Administrator" who can look after the day-to-day issues that arise, and make sure that specialist support services are available at short notice in the event of failure.
