Server Roles, Technologies and Features in FedoraOS Server Platform ( FOSSP )

This section provides a brief overview of the FedoraOS Server Platform ( FOSSP ) server roles and the general features that they provide.

Each server running FedoraOS Server Platform ( FOSSP ) runs one or more server roles. A server role is a defined set of server application functionalities provided by that server. You do not need to deploy all available server roles in your network but rather install only the server roles that contain the functionality that you want,require or need in your infrastructure.

Even if you are not familiar with all the server roles available in the FedoraOS Server Platform ( FOSSP ), the *Missing Infrastructure Tool* can help identify and guide you to the best solution for the servers that you need to deploy, based on the features that you want,require or need in your infrastructure.
