A computer (server) that is designed to host and run a database. A good example of a popular database server is the MySQL database server. MySQL is of the open-source variety and is growing rapidly in popularity.
the database engine. It may reside on one or more physical servers. Also, one physical server may contain multiple database servers.
a ais computer program that provides databaseservices to other computer
a computer or program running on a computer which provides database services to other programs or computers
a computer system file server that processes database queries
a computer system that processes database queries Client The client part of client-server architecture
a computing platform whose primary processing activity is centered around that of database processing
a DBMS that provides services to applications that reside on client machines on the network
an application-process, within the same or another open system, that supplies database storage facilities and provides, through OSI communication, database services to RDA clients
an application that is based on the client/server architecture model
a node that hosts a database from which a client requests data
a physical machine / computer unit that has been programmed / configured to exclusively store and process database files through the use of various programming languages like ASP, PERL, CGI, JSP, PHP and XML
a process that takes requests from Progress clients that aren't self-service (usually in the form of network packets) and, as the server is a self-service client itself, deals with the database buffers for them
a program accepting SQL requests from clients over multiple network connections
a program running on a single machine which talks with a client program, which runs on a user's workstation
a program serving database clients by executing requests received from client applications
a program that lets another program retrieve information stored in a database
a pure server (not a client of other servers) it waits for messages from application servers to either vote or decide on results
a special piece of software that resides on the file server
a very complex application and it comes with an assortment of tools that allow an experienced Database Administrator to monitor the health of the server and the databases installed on the server
The server on which the database application and database used with IBM Director Server are installed.
A server on a LAN that is dedicated to storing and retrieving information from databases.
A network computer that specializes in retrieving and storing data, providing that service to clients.
Software maintained by NFC to house customer information. Accessed remotely from the customer site using client software.
A database management system (DBMS).
A computer or a process that accepts and processes requests for database information from clients.
When installing, there is a field called DSN/Database host. This is to specify the location of you database's server. For non ODBC database servers, you should usually enter localhost here. See also: Entering the required data, Database, PostgreSQL, MS SQL, MS SQL, DSN
A database installed as a back-end or server component of a client-server system, which can be accessed over a LAN by one or more client, or front-end applications through the use of query language, typically SQL. The server part of the program is responsible for updating the records, ensuring that multiple access is available to authorized users, protecting the data and communicating with other servers holding relevant data. The client end of the program requests records and then modifies them, while the server tracks records down for the client and adds new ones.
A data storage and retrieval system. Database servers typically run on a dedicated computer and are accessed by client applications over a network.
A computer program that regulates all access to information in a database. Adaptive Server Anywhere provides two types of servers: network servers and personal servers.
Databases consist of two parts, servers and clients. A database server contains and manages a central repository of data.
The (back end) portion of the client/server database system running on the server and providing database processing and shared access functions.
A database server is the computer on a network that houses and manages a database. When other users on the network want to search or input data into the database, they do so through the database server. This is different from a file server model where a part of the database would be copied to the user's computer, and s/he would perform the search there. Source: TechSoup.org
The node or computer at which the ORACLE Server kernel runs. The database server holds the database, runs the ORACLE Server kernel, is not a MS-DOS PC or Macintosh (but could be an OS/2 PC), and runs a multitask operating system. See also server machine.
The computer which runs the ORACLE Server kernel and contains the database.
A stand-alone computer in a local area network that holds and manages the database
Server that stores data, such as orders, inventory, shipping status, customer information, etc. Databases are typically based on SQL and are accessed using protocols such as ODBC, JDBC or sockets.
Server that stores and provides access to a database. 9.14, 13.29
A computer that stores data centrally for network users. It often uses client/server software to distribute the processing of data among itself and other workstations on the network.
A database server is a computer program that provides database services to other computer programs or computers, as defined by the client-server model. The term may also refer to a computer dedicated to running such a program. Database management systems frequently provide database server functionality, and some DBMS's (e.g., My SQL) rely exclusively on the client-server model for database access.
