It is just like a store room where different website store and manage the data and information. As
a software, Database server is the back-end system of the application called database using client-
server architecture. The world back-end referred as the database serve that perform a specialized
task i.e. data analysis, storage, data achieving, data manipulating etc. A database server perform as
the when a computer in a LAN is dedicate to the database server that can store, update, delete,
drop the different kind of data and information. As per the request of the client computer, the
server search the records in the database and send back to the network system.
Mainly a database server is implemented in those organization which have to deal with the lots of
data on the regular basis. If we have client-server network model where the client computer are
needed to process the data too frequently, I suggest to work in the database server. But some
organization used file server for process and store data. As a compression I would say database
server is far better than the file server for those organization where data need to process too
frequently.
Virtualization server
Dividing the physical server into smaller server which are virtual to maximize the server sources
is called server virtualization. The resources of the server are itself hidden or masked from the
users and different kinds of software are used to break the physical server into the different
multiple server environment. In the case of large companies, the machines that host application
and files on the network must be more powerful. To make them powerful multiple processor
should be implemented along with CPUs and finally these server will run complex tasks easily.
There are different method to make server virtualization some of them are: virtualization at the OS
(operating system) layer, virtual machine model, and para-virtual machine model. Server
virtualization has many benefits. For an instance, each virtual server run its own operating system
and each virtual server is also work (rebooted) independently of one another. It reduces the cost of
the company because less number of hardware are required.
Print server
In simple word, a print server is a computer or a software application that always process the work
that are related to print in a network. There may be one or more printer connected in a network in
order to served printing job. This type of server are mainly allows the user in a computer network
to perform printing job without moving files or documents to the computer connected directly to
the printer. Beside than print server it is also known as network printer. As per the request of the
end users and network administrations, the print server in a network manages the print request and
makes print queue status information available. In order to experiencing better environment, this
server is employed in both small companies and big enterprise or in home office (SOHO)
networks.
For an instance, in large organization, one dedicated computer work as a print server and manage
all other print that are available in that network. But in case of small office, a print server is small
networking device like a size of hub/switch that perform all the function of dedicate server, and
the disk space will be frees up on those office having limited number of computers.

Software requirement:
Server software: Software that are kept in the server of the computer and provides services
to multiple client or user network environment are termed as server software. It is a powerful
software that has an authority whether to provide the access to the user or deny the request of
the client software. Server software also stores all the database. They are like a parent of the
client software.
Client software: The software that are kept in the user’s computer or mobile device and has
the program installed about asking permission to the server is termed as client software. They
are like a child of server software. They always ask permission to the server software and if
permission is accepted then they access the data from the server. Mostly the permission are is
provided to the client software regardless of some special case.
In this document I am going to provide the information about the different ranges of the server types
and selection of the server type that is effective for the NMB bank network system.
The different types of server, example and their specification that I am going to describe are:
1. Rack Server i.e. Dell PowerEdge R720
2. Tower Server i.e. Dell PowerEdge T640
3. Blade Server i.e. Dell m1000e
Rack Server
A computer that is dedicate to use as a server and designed to be installed in a framework is called
rack. The rack server is also called rack-mounted server. Bays are contained in the rack which are
multiple mounting slots and they are designed to hold a hardware unit secured in place mostly
with screws. It has a low profile enclosure which is built into an upright, standalone cabinet.
Multiple server stacked are present in the single rack one above the other, consolidating network
resources and minimizing the required floor space. Server are filled with the equipment of rack.
To prevent from excessive heating a special cooling system is needed. If we not fix cooling
system there may occur power dissipating component which are confined in a small space.
Here I am taking example of Dell PowerEdge R720 Rack Server as a Rack Server.
Tower Server
It is also called a tower, and multiple tower server which works together for different tasks and
processes. A computer that is built in an upright cabinet which stands alone and is designed to
function as a server is termed as tower server. This kinds of server are popular owing to the
scalability and reliability features because unlimited servers can be added to the existing network
largely because of the independent nature of the individual tower servers. It look like a desktop
and seems dated but this server can pack a punch. For an instance, if a company has lots of server,
they probably using bunch of tower server. These bunch can take up a lots of space and are very
difficult to manage since we can’t easily stack them on one another. Therefore, a tower server is
mainly found in the smaller environment.
Here I am taking example of Dell PowerEdge T640 as a Tower Server.
Blade Server
The blade server is the chassis housing multiple thin, modular electronic circuit boards. Each
blade server is often dedicate to the single application. The blades are servers on a card containing
processor, memory, integrated network, channel of transmission media i.e. optical fiber and I/O
ports. It also allow more processing power in less rack space, reducing the power consumption
and simplifying cabling. The server technology moving to blade server can experience as much as
an 85% reduction in cabling blade installations over conventional 1U or tower server. Time will
be properly managed by the help of less cabling and more time will be ensure high availability. It
is high density server and mostly used in clustering of the server that are dedicated to a single
task.
Here I am taking example of Dell m1000e as a Blade Server.
Selection of Best Server
According to my research I had found Dell PowerEdge T640 as a Tower Server would be suitable
server for the network of NMB bank. Considering each server, specific server has specific function,
qualities and abilities. I have choose Dell PowerEdge T640 as a Tower Server keeping in mind that it
has better performance and cost of this server will also suitable for the NMB bank network system.
