The Main Advantages of Network Sharing
The main advantages of network sharing instantly felt it was, the Internet is global, because essentially the Internet itself is a series of computers (thousands and even millions of computers) that are connected to each other. Berevelusi and evolve over time, thus forming a complex network as we perceive today.
Another advantage in terms of the internal network are:
* Resource Sharing, can use existing resources together. Suppose a user is located 100 km away from the data, did not have difficulty in using such data, as if the data is located nearby. This often means that the computer network distance problem.
* High reliability, with our computer network will have a high reliability by having alternative sources of supply. For example, all files can be saved or copied to two, three more computers connected So if one machine breaks down, then a copy in another machine that can be used.
* Save money, have tiny Computer price / performance ratio better than a large computer. Large computers such as mainframes have roughly ten times the speed of a small computer / personal. Be fixed, mainframe pricing thousand times more expensive than personal computers. Imbalance price / performance ratio and speed of this makes the system designer to build a system that consists of personal computers.
* Hardware sharing, For the life of the hardware together. With the network facility and then use a tool called a printer server. it is an expensive color laser printer that can be worn at all costs jointly by 10 employees. Similarly, scanners, Plotter, and other tools.
* Security and data settings, the computers in a business environment, with the existence of such networks allows an administrator to organize the data of the most important office. In every department of becoming fragmented and data scattered everywhere. Important data can be in managing the back end to a server and then replicated or backed up according to company policy. Similarly, an admin will be able to control the necessary data so they can be accessed or edited by people who are entitled to it.
* The instability and increase computing performance, in certain circumstances, a network can be used to improve the overall performance of business applications, by way of assignment in distributed computing to multiple computers on the network.
