A device that responds to requests from client applications is commonly referred to as a "server." Servers process incoming requests, provide resources, and deliver services or data to client devices over a network. They can handle various types of requests, such as web pages, files, or applications, depending on their specific function and configuration.

A server waits for requests from the client. Once the client does a request, the server responds.

In a Local Area Network (LAN), data requests from a data provider are typically described using the terms "client" and "server." The client refers to the device or application that requests data, while the server is the data provider that responds to those requests. Additionally, "protocol" is another key term, as it defines the rules and conventions for communication between the client and server.
A server system typically provides services to a client. They are run to carry out the requests of other applications.

The computer on a network that requests resources from the server is called the client. The server may also be used to implement administrative security for the client computers.
HTTP is mainly a pull protocol, where the client (such as a web browser) initiates requests for data from a server. The server then responds to these requests by sending the requested data back to the client. HTTP does not inherently support push capabilities, although techniques like server-sent events and WebSockets can be used to achieve push functionality.
