    Study Notes

    Storage Capacity

    • The unit of measurement for storage capacity is not explicitly mentioned in the text.

    Internet Connection

    • 56K Dial-up connects to the internet through a dial-up modem that establishes a connection to an Internet Service Provider (ISP) via a phone line.

    Data Center

    • The primary purpose of a data center is to provide a central location for housing servers, data storage systems, and network equipment that provide internet infrastructure.

    Web Server Application

    • An example of a web server application is not explicitly mentioned in the text.

    Data Center Measurement

    • The network of processors and storage devices within a data center is measured in terms of its processing power, storage capacity, and network bandwidth.

    Server Characteristics

    • A key characteristic of servers in the context of internet infrastructure is that they are high-performance computers that provide services over a network.

    Network Design

    • The physical design of the network together with the hardware components is referred to as the network architecture.

    Network Infrastructure Implementation

    • When implementing a network infrastructure, activities performed include designing, building, and configuring the network architecture, as well as deploying and managing network devices and services.

    Logical Infrastructure

    • The components of the logical infrastructure of a network include protocols, routing, and network addressing.

    Logical Infrastructure Enablement

    • The logical infrastructure enables computer communication by providing the rules, protocols, and addressing schemes that allow devices on the network to communicate with each other.
