Internet & Network

Websites Creation & Deployment

A website is a collection of related web pages that are accessed through a web browser. It is typically hosted on a web server and made available to users over the internet. Websites can range from simple static pages with text and images to complex, interactive platforms with dynamic content and functionality.

Web Applications

A web application is a software applications that run on a web server and is accessed through a web browser. Unlike a static website, a web application is interactive and provides functionality beyond displaying information. It allows users to perform specific tasks, such as submitting forms, conducting transactions, or accessing personalized content. A Database Application is designed to interact with a database to store, retrieve, and manage data efficiently. Here are some key points about database applications:

• Data Management: They allow users to insert, update, delete, and query data stored in a database.
• User Interface: Many database applications provide a user-friendly interface for interacting with the data, such as forms, reports, and dashboards.
• Automation: They can automate data processing tasks, such as generating reports or sending notifications based on data changes.

Intranet Network Implementation

An intranet is a private network contained within an enterprise that is used to securely share company information and computing resources among employees. An intranet can also be used for working in groups and teleconferences. Intranets encourage communication within an organization. You organization will get better presence and flexibility using a Intranet.

Key Features of an Intranet:

• Internal Communication: Intranets are designed to improve communication within an organization, allowing employees to share information quickly and efficiently.
• Collaboration Tools: They often include tools for project management, document sharing, and team collaboration, making it easier for employees to work together.
• Operational Systems: Intranets can host various operational systems such as HR management, customer relationship management (CRM), and other business applications.
• Security: Access to an intranet is restricted to authorized users, ensuring that sensitive information remains secure. This is typically managed through user authentication and network security measures like firewalls.

How Intranets Work:

• Web Server: The intranet is hosted on a web server that provides services such as email, databases, and content management systems (CMS).
• Local Area Network (LAN): Intranets are usually built on a LAN, which connects computers within a limited area, such as an office building.
• Firewall: A firewall is often used to protect the intranet from external threats by filtering incoming and outgoing traffic.

Benefits of Using an Intranet:

• Enhanced Productivity: By centralizing information and tools, intranets can significantly improve employee productivity.
• Improved Collaboration: Features like shared workspaces and communication tools help teams collaborate more effectively.
• Cost Savings: Intranets can reduce costs by streamlining processes and reducing the need for physical documents and meetings.

Cloud Computing

Cloud computing is the on-demand availability of computer system resources, especially data storage (cloud storage) and computing power, without direct active management by the user. Large clouds often have functions distributed over multiple locations, each of which is a data center. Cloud computing relies on sharing of resources to achieve coherence and typically uses a pay-as-you-go model, which can help in reducing capital expenses but may also lead to unexpected operating expenses for users.
