Server
A server is a computer or software system that provides data, resources, or services to other devices on a network, acting as the unsung hero that keeps websites, emails, and apps running smoothly in our digital world. In everyday contexts, it can also refer to a person who serves food or assists customers, underscoring how the term bridges technology and human service roles.

The first server specifically designed for the World Wide Web was built by Tim Berners-Lee in 1989 at CERN, using a simple NeXT Computer to host the inaugural website. Today, global data centers house over 50 million servers that process more than 4.5 billion gigabytes of data daily, equivalent to streaming every movie ever made multiple times over.
