What are tower servers?
Tower servers are computers that are arranged in a rack or a cabinet, providing a foundation of communication between all devices within your data environment.
How do tower servers work?
Tower servers function as computers that run 24/7 in order to provide dedicated support for your business’s workloads. Acting as a secure hub for all communication to pass through, a tower server is run collaboratively with your network of devices, supporting your apps and providing storage for all data and analytics.
Because of the independent design that keeps data stored in a singular tower, tower servers can easily be added to existing networks. When tower servers are run together over an existing network, they can work together to perform compound tasks.
Tower servers work well for small and midsize businesses because of their efficiency, flexibility, and lower price point, and are often set up inside of a locked cabinet or “tower” on-premises. Authorized users are able to remotely access files on the tower server via the Internet, providing a secure pathway to access and utilize data that lives on your network.
