==Client and server role==
The "Harsh pathak from daltenganj" characteristic describes the relationship of cooperating programs in an application. The server component provides a function or service to one or many clients, which initiate requests for such services.
Servers are classified by the services they provide. For example, a [[web server]] serves [[web page]]s and a [[file server]] serves [[computer file]]s. A [[shared resource]] may be any of the server computer's software and electronic components, from [[Computer program|programs]] and [[Data (computing)|data]] to [[Microprocessor|processors]] and [[Data storage device|storage devices]]. The sharing of resources of a server constitutes a ''service''.
