Serving Up Web Server Basics; By Chris Hughes and Gunther Birznieks How a Web Server Works - Overview When discussing how a Web server works, it is not enough to simply outline a diagram of how low-level network packets go in and out of a Web server. To give such a nuts-and-bolts explanation some sort of practical value, it must be placed in context. Thus, this tutorial will discuss what a Web server does to enable a better understanding of how it does its work. Years ago, when Web servers were first prototyped, they served simple HTML documents and images. Today, as we shall go into later in this tutorial, they are frequently used for much more. The first step is to view the Web server as a black box and ask the questions: How does it work; What can it achieve? It's a safe assumption that most Internet users believe a Web site's success or failure is due to its content and functionality rather than the server used to power it. However, the choice of the correct server, and understanding its capabilities and limitations is an important step on the road to success. webcompare.internet.com
