rule is that each small, medium or large company had to have its own server. Not every company needs it and when it is not always the best to the company server to host and operate the company's expenses in his office. Such a server in one way or another, will need a manager or someone to build solutions to any problems faced. Servers can now be relatively cheap rent, but for basic use server manually build each pudding.
Speaking of the "essential use", pointing out that in this article for our server will be as simple machine that provides its services to other network users. For such a server can be regarded as common, a properly configured PC.
Windows Home Server
Bill Gates once had idealistic notions about the functioning of life in the digital form. Specifically, that meant that in fact each household (both digital and non-digital) could take advantage of a small home server. For most people, it initially seemed like an absolute futility, however time has shown that such a bad idea it was. And as time remains to be seen running home server is definitely the future direction. Of course, a product aimed at masovku, so it was all about ease of installation and operation, low investment and operating costs, and of course the versatility indeed for every household. It immediately struck the selection then the Windows Server family, which would operate smoothly, while at home, but on the first three properties would go to the flowers. And so was Windows Home Server.
Windows Home Server is actually a system built on Windows Server 2003 Small Business. Expansion is a very successful control console, with which most settings manage. As regards the basis taken from the current Windows Server, can not miss not able to connect to the server using RDP (Remote Desktop). In this way, an administrator can install software and expand the capabilities and range of use of the system - such as bittorrent client install and configure the Web-based management. Home Server, will not join the domain, Exchange Server, so you can forget it. Pleased with the option to run as SharePoint Services and many others. For small businesses or households with more than 10 computers on the network really ideal and easy expandability. Features
Home Server and its features are designed primarily for home use, most of them can be easily applied even in a small office firmičky. Complete base is a function of sharing folders and printers (file server and print server). To secure access to data on a server is of course possible to install any third-party software - for use as Cerberus FTP protocol FTP, etc.
Speaking of dating (as in a personal note said) absolutely "Killing Feature "backup. Backup is fully automated, server can be used as a destination of data from a Mac using Time Machine. Backup the files shown here is similar to the disk array configuration RAID 1 Windwos Home Server, it does not address the physical disks in order to maintain simplicity it is not the preferred functions (array of course you can run regardless of the simplicity of it does not matter). Files on network folders can be backed up perhaps the simplest way - duplicating. The user sets, if he wants to secure its ingredients against data loss in this manner and if they do, the server will automatically take care of the files in the folder are automatically duplicated and transferred to another physical disk. In case of failure HDD1 So nothing happens and works with the duplication of data, which were backed up on disk this way HDD2. In addition to backup, you can HDD1 the data as you like hot-swapping.
backup of each computer course is also automatically according to preset patterns at predetermined times. Computer to be at a certain time at night and wake up nachvíli the server gradually back up data or images of entire drives and the PC after the fall asleep again. The user is not distracted at work, suffer loss of performance during backups, etc. Backup is also a way known from the Time Machine - that image is added to change the fact that the old version is preserved for future restoration.
backup system can thus be a way to images of computers - known to be from Acronis TrueImage. In case of failure the user inserts another disk, a renewal of a special boot CD, it detects the home network server and the user just selects the backup to restore the new disk. Jenoduché, effective, prompt and your PC is usable again.
Every Home Server also runs its own domain. When you enter a special address to a Web browser can easily get through the CFT on the remaining computers in the network (if it allows remote access), download data in a way that we know when downloading from the Web, data recording, etc.
work for common and advanced home use Windows Home Server offers numerous indeed, most can just as easily be used in smaller companies, where the traffic was "full" Windows Server 2003/2008 unnecessarily expensive and its untapped potential. There is no function domain and Active Directory, but it really does not matter to smaller companies, households, certainly not. Can not forget the fact that the Home Server is just the Windows Server via RDP it is possible to install a lot of plug-ins, add-ons and extensions and other software (eg VPN traffic), you would like to run on the server.
Concept Home Depot media grabbed the larger and smaller brands that sell their cost-saving solutions to this system. But this one can run smoothly on almost any PC, the advantage of ready solution is a good optimization and low operating cost of the solution, which is primarily designed for continuous operation. Is my Windows Home Server golden middle class in a relatively blunt the NAS and the more expensive "thoroughbred" servers.
So much for my idea on the application server absolutely everywhere (I was kind of lover are here 24 / 7 running machines).
