what is different between webserver and application server?

Answer Posted / mala

According to my knowledge,

Application server is more capable of dynamic behaviour
than webserver. We can also configure application server to
work as a webserver.Simply application server is a superset
of webserver.

Webserver exclusively handles http requests.application
server serves bussiness logic to application programs
through any number of protocols.
