+====== Server (Network) ======
+A [[process]] that provides a service for a distributed application is known as //server//. The [[end-system]] that executes the //server// [[process]] is usually remote from the [[client]] of the service. Servers are often implemented as an "always on" process that "listens" for requests from clients on a so-called //server [[socket]]//. Such processes are often called //[[daemon|daemons]]//.
