What is a Server process? ..

Answer / guest

A server process (program) fulfills the client request by
performing the task requested. Server programs generally
receive requests from client programs, execute database
retrieval and updates, manage data integrity and dispatch
responses to client requests. Sometimes server programs
execute common or complex business logic. The server-based
process "may" run on another machine on the network. This
server could be the host operating system or network file
server; the server is then provided both file system
services and application services. Or in some cases,
another desktop machine provides the application services.
The server process acts as a software engine that manages
shared resources such as databases, printers, communication
links, or high powered-processors. The server process
performs the back-end tasks that are common to similar
applications.
