Workstations

Workstation computers are for single usage and professional purposes. These are like our basic laptops and desktops but with added superior features. For example, double-processor motherboard, added graphic card, ECC RAM, etc. The workstations are more powerful as compared to generic PCs. These can handle heavy-duty functions. Like animation, CAD, audio & video editing, professional gaming, etc.

Examples: Apple PowerBook G4, SPARC CPU, MIPS CPU, etc.

Servers

These are hardware components or software programs that are built to assist other computers termed as clients. Together this architecture is called the client-server model. The client sends a request to the server and the server responds in return with a result or a solution. This proves that these server computers are more powerful than standard computers. The main purpose of these computers is to share data and resources with other computers.

Different types of servers are useful for different needs and applications. For example, cloud server, application server, database server, file server, etc. Each of these servers has a different purpose for different client needs.

Embedded

These computers are mainly microcontroller-based systems. Used for processing specific tasks. The embedded computers have both a combination of software and hardware components. But, are usually a part of a larger system. Each of its components is designed from scratch to serve a specific purpose or complete a specific task. Another characteristic that distinguishes them from a standard PC is that all of its components are integrated on a single PCB or motherboard. They are most helpful for industrial use. this is because of their ruggedness.

Examples: GPS systems, centralized heating systems, fitness trackers, digital watches, electronic calculators, etc.
