A server is a high-performance computer that runs server software to handle user requests, manage network data and resources, and provide shared services to connected clients over a network. A web server processes incoming network requests over HTTP and related protocols and can serve web content to the World Wide Web. An application server handles backend logic like processing, calculations, and database connections to deploy applications and serve dynamic business logic, while a database server provides database services and houses database applications to store and manage data.
