Server Types:

Whether you have a small business or larger company, many of the server roles below are serving your network and users. In larger environments, these roles are split amongst individual servers, to provide greater redundancy.

Application Server: An application server runs a specific application or program. Often used for QuickBooks or for proprietary software.

Database Software: This can be running SQL Server, Filemaker Pro, ACT, or any other database program.

POS Server: A Point of Sale Server is mostly used in retail or restaurant environments where a cash register is needed.

File Server: All companies have at least one File Server, or a server that is playing this role, if there is file sharing going on amongst users.

Print Server: Simply makes it easy to share printers over a network for all computers.

Domain Controller: Manages the security and permissions of users on the network. This is running a program called Active Directory, which is at the heart of networking security.

Exchange Server: Microsoft’s email and calendar software is called Exchange Server. Outlook is a common program that connects to Exchange Server   

Web Server: This server is responsible for hosting your internet web site or intranet site.

Microsoft Small Business Server: Microsoft’s Small Business Server (SBS) offers  all the server needs for a small  business. It includes Exchange Server as well. While often a good solution for small business, it does not provide redundancy, so is limited in terms of practical network size that is recommended.
