What is a tower server

  
                  

Tower server should be the type of server structure that everyone sees most and is the easiest to understand, because its shape and structure are similar to the vertical PC we usually use. Of course, because the server's motherboard is more scalable. The slot is also a lot more, so the head is bigger than the ordinary motherboard, so the mainframe chassis of the tower server is larger than the standard ATX chassis, and generally enough space is reserved for future hard disk and power supply redundancy. Expansion.


Because of the relatively large tower server chassis, the server's configuration can also be very high, redundancy can be extended more complete, so it's a very wide range of applications, it should be said One type of server that is currently the most used is the tower server. The common servers we usually say are generally tower servers. It can be used to integrate a variety of common services. Both speed and storage applications can be solved with a tower server.

As far as the use of objects or usage levels is concerned, the current common entry-level and workgroup-level servers basically adopt this server structure type, and some departmental applications will also adopt, but since there is only one host, Even if there is a limit to the upgrade and expansion, in some enterprises with high application requirements, the single-machine server can not meet the requirements, and the multi-machine needs to work together. The tower server is too big, the independence is too strong, and the cooperation works in space. Inconvenience in occupancy and system management is also a limitation of the tower server. However, in general, the functions and performance of such servers can basically meet the requirements of most enterprise users, and the cost is usually low. Therefore, such servers still have very wide application support.
