Web Server (IIS)

The term web server, also written as Web server, can refer to either the hardware
(the computer) or the software (the computer application) that helps to deliver
web content that can be accessed through the Internet.

The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other
uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling
email, FTP, or other web uses.

clients.
