Servers vs. Home Computers: They May Both ‘Boot Up’, But They’re Not the Same Species!

Servers vs. Home Computers: They May Both 'Boot Up', But They're Not the Same Species!

When many people first enter a server room, they often stare at the rows of “iron lumps” flashing with green lights, puzzled, and ask: “Isn’t this just a computer? Why is it called a server?” Indeed, they can all boot up, connect to the internet, and run programs, but don’t be fooled by appearances—the difference … Read more
