Networking And Its Benefits

When we connect two or more than two computers with each other it called “Net Working”.
Now the question arises why we need networking? Infect, networking has lot of plus points and has advantages over the single PC. First of all, networking increases the productivity of entire network. For example, we are working n a file and now we want to present that file to our manager or boss. So, what e will do? First of all we will arrange some floppy disk or pen drive then we will write it on that floppy or pen drive, again we will convert it to the required computer. So, this activity involves more than three steps. But if we want to do it in a networking environment we will just copy the file on the desired computer drive, which, will be shared on the network. So, it reduces the time and increases the productivity.
Then next advantage of networking is cost saving benefit. Networking is a less expensive thing as computer to the other exercise to perform the same activity. We don’t need the floppy drives, we don’t need to pen drive, we don’t need the individual printer and scanner, means to say that in a small office environment where we have only tem computers. We can use only one printer and can print from any computer. In networking environment, we also save the disk space. We only share a main hard disk (Server’s hard disk) and install main programs on that server hard disk and then there is no need to install the software an individual computer. In networking environment its easy to maintain the computers if we don’t have networking we need to pay consultation on individual computers but in networking, environment, we need only one computer expert called network administrator. He can easily manage all the connected computers. He pays special attention to server (because all the important data and programs are saved on the shared server and he can also restrict the users to that the users can’t harm the computers. Other great advantage of networking is the sharing of devices. As we have talked about it already, that without networking we need individual printers for individual computers. But in networking environment, we only attach the devices with server, or another computer, which, is the part of network. And all the users can utilize that resources (devices). Same way, we place the software and the data store on the server and all the users use that software and data from that server. In a network, everybody can communicate with the other members of network. They can chat, they can discuss about the serious matters just sitting on his/her seat and all is possible in a networking environment. Networking also provides lot of securities because all the important data and all the software are installed on the server and network administrator can easily manage the security of that important data. But imagine, without networking network administrator has to take back ups from individual computers.
