  2. Blade server - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blade_server

    This architecture enabled the ability to provision (power up, install operating systems and applications software) (e.g. a Web Servers) remotely from a Network Operations Center (NOC). The system architecture when this system was announced was called Ketris, named after the Ketri Sword, worn by nomads in such a way as to be drawn very quickly ...

    Offering common services, such as an interface for accessing network and disk devices. This enables an application to be run on different hardware without needing to be rewritten. [13] Application software runs on top of the operating system and uses the computer's resources to perform a task. [14]

  8. Digital forensics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_forensics

    Network forensics is concerned with the monitoring and analysis of computer network traffic, both local and WAN/internet, for the purposes of information gathering, evidence collection, or intrusion detection. [54] Traffic is usually intercepted at the packet level, and either stored for later analysis or filtered in real-time. Unlike other ...

  9. Frontend and backend - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontend_and_Backend

    Network traffic passes through the front-end hardware before entering the network. In processor design , frontend design would be the initial description of the behavior of a circuit in a hardware description language such as Verilog , while backend design would be the process of mapping that behavior to physical transistors on a die.
