Data Science Model Deployments and Cloud Computing on GCP - Server

The video tutorial explains the role of servers in handling data exchange between clients and databases. It uses a to-do app as an example to illustrate client-server communication, detailing how user interactions are processed and data is updated. The tutorial also discusses how multiple users can have unique experiences while accessing the same server and database, using real-world examples like shopping websites and social media. Finally, it provides a brief overview of server code and database interactions.

What is the primary role of a server in a network?

• To store user data locally

• To handle data exchange between clients and databases

• To provide internet access to clients

• To manage user interfaces

In the to-do app example, what happens after a user deletes a task?

• The task is removed from the browser cache

• The task is archived for future reference

• The server updates the database and sends a new list to the client

• The client directly updates the database

What happens when a client makes a network request?

• The request is stored for later processing

• The browser communicates with the operating system to reach the server

• The request is processed locally on the client device

• The server directly updates the client interface

How do multiple users have unique experiences on the same server?

• Each user has a dedicated server

• The server provides a generic experience for all users

• The server customizes data based on user preferences

• Users access different databases

Why do we not have unique servers for each user on a website?

• Unique servers are not technologically feasible

• Shared servers allow for efficient data management

• Users prefer shared experiences

• It is too expensive to maintain

What is the function of the server code in the to-do app?

• To display the user interface

• To listen for client requests and retrieve data from the database

• To manage user authentication

• To store client-side scripts

What does the server do when it receives a request for data?

• It retrieves the requested data from the database

• It sends a generic response

• It ignores the request

• It asks the client to resend the request
