Networking

Computer is a necessity in most homes and a must in all small, medium and large to very large organizations. Resources within computers are enormous and need to be shared among computers. For this sole reason computers are networked. Networking of computers, SOHO, for home or for office use, must be designed, analyzed critically before final implementation. Others may see networking as just running cables to computers and to hub/switches. Such thinking is myopic.

A poorly planned and designed network will always result to network down-time, frequent time-outs, and packet losses. There will definitely not be any solution in place, except on the invitation of experts to oversee the cable plant and entire network system. Installing a network will actually involve proper infrastructural layout and putting in place the appropriate network operating system and necessary networking monitoring facility. For Corporate internet, setting up a good bandwidth management facility.

Nowadays, LAN in an area can be link to a LAN in a remote location. In such cases we look at WLAN, LAN and WI-FI. Wireless networking is now the order of the day. Two or more remote offices can talk to each other. Cable and Wireless Networking can be setup for Home use and corporate bodies.

We have the necessary certifications and experience. This certification makes us your best choice in Cable and Wireless/Network Administrators. We are certified by Microsoft, the leading software giant. We have put in place, solid turnkey networking solutions both in LAN, WLAN and WI-FI. P2P, P2MP.

There will always be degradation in your network installation, for a simple fact that standardize procedures were not followed or the management of your network is in wrong hands.

Server

In information technology, a server is a computer program that provides services to other computer programs (and their users) in the same or other computers.

The computer that a server program runs in is also frequently referred to as a server (though it may be used for other purposes as well).
In the client/server programming model, a server is a program that awaits and fulfills requests from client programs in the same or other computers. A given application in a computer may function as a client with requests for services from other programs and also as a server of requests from other programs.

Specific to the Web, a Web server is the computer program (housed in a computer) that serves requested HTML pages or files. A Web client is the requesting program associated with the user. The Web browser in your computer is a client that requests HTML files from Web servers.

A network server is a computer system, which is used as the central repository of data and various programs that are shared by users in a network.
Many people mistakenly believe that a server is no different from a typical desktop computer. This couldn't be further from the truth. While almost any computer that meets the minimum hardware requirements can run a server operating system that alone does not make a desktop computer a true server. Even if the desktop computer had similar processor speeds, memory and storage capacity compared to a server, it still isn't a replacement for a real server. The technologies behind them are engineered for different purposes.

A desktop computer system typically runs a user-friendly operating system and desktop applications to facilitate desktop-oriented tasks. In contrast, a server manages all network resources. Servers are often dedicated (meaning it performs no other task besides server tasks). Because a server is engineered to manage, store, send and process data 24-hours a day it has to be more reliable than a desktop computer and offers a variety of features and hardware not typically used in the average desktop computer.

A business company might be tempted to save money for lack of understating or not listen to IT experts opinion by simply running a server operating system on a desktop computer -- but this isn't a replacement for real server hardware. Continue reading to gain a better understanding of the difference between a network server and a desktop computer, and learn about the core technologies behind them.

While implementing a network is not a trivial or inexpensive undertaking, the benefits you gain by adding a server to your business computing environment outweigh any shortcomings. A small business might be tempted to save time and money by simply running a server operating system on a desktop computer, but this isn't a replacement for a real server.

Corporate Internet on a Network

This is a known fact that the internet can be use to get relevant information for the growth of an organization. Bandwidth will also be required for use of the internet. The bandwidth may never be enough to cater for all the users on the network using the internet. The more you try to increase the bandwidth the more information are required to be accessed. Policy of Bandwidth increase will then be open-ended.

Your network and internet bandwidth can be well managed if appropriate internal policies and devices are put in place for your organization. The Policies will amongst others include the following:

i. Shape the traffic
ii. Limit number of concurrent connections by an individual.
iii. Limit the upper download/upload
iv. Allocate bandwidth usage per individual.
v. In all block websites that are not relevant to the organization.
vi. On a simple note allocate/schedule time to be on the internet and sites to be allowed on a given time.

Internet Bandwidth (Shared and  Dedicated)

It is very difficult to ascertain a bandwidth capacity that will be enough for an individual or corporate use. You may have a bandwidth that is 128kbps UPLOAD  and 256kbps DOWNLOAD(shared or dedicated). Shared may be ratio 1:8 0r 1:4, dedicated ratio 1:1. Dedicated is for critical data usage on the internet and very expensive than shared of ratio 1:4 and this cost more than shared ratio of 1:8.

When a download occurs the rate of countdown of packets will indicate if the shared bandwidth is ratio 1:4 or 1:8. Dedicated would be steady in packets count.

Shared of 1024kbps(1mbps) up and 2048kbps(2mbps) down ratio 1:4 will work better than 1mbps up and 2mbps down ratio 1:8.

You should also consider the number of users on the network at any given time and what they do while on the network. Using Facebook, graphics, video streaming, downloading heavy files, updates from the internet etc.
