AWS: Cloud Servers

Review, Research, and Discussion

  1. Describe the Web-Request-Response-Cycle
    • A user gives a client a URL
    • the client builds a request for information to be generated by a server.
    • The server recieves a request and builds a response that contains the requested information.
    • The response is sent back to the client in the requested format, to be rendered to the user.
  2. Explain what a “server” is, as it relates to the WRRC
    • When the server receives a request, it uses the information included in the request to build a response that contains the requested information
  3. What does it mean to “deploy” an application?
    • the process of installing, configuring, and enabling a specific application or set of applications, usually through an application manager (app manager) or software management system, to a specific URL on a server.
