- 3. Network Operating System Features A network operating system (NOS) is an operating system designed for the sole purpose of supporting workstations, database sharing, and application sharing and file and printer access sharing among multiple computers in a network. Network Operating System (NOS)
- 5. Network Operating System Features Types of NOS
- 6. Network Operating System Features Types of NOS 1. Peer-to-peer network (P2P) operating system users are allowed to share resources and files located on their computers and access shared resources from others.
- 7. Network Operating System Features Advantages • Ease of setup • Less hardware needed, no server need be acquired
- 8. Network Operating System Features Disadvantages • No central location for storage • Less security than the client– server model
- 9. Network Operating System Features 2. Client-server network operating systems allow networks to centralize functions and applications in one or more dedicated file servers. The server is the center of the system, allowing access to resources and instituting security
- 10. Network Operating System Features Advantages • Centralized servers are more stable. • Security is provided through the server. • New technology and hardware can be easily integrated into the system. • Hardware and the operating system can be specialized, with a focus on performance. • Servers are able to be accessed remotely from different locations and types of systems.
- 11. Network Operating System Features Disadvantages • Buying and running a server raises costs. • Dependence on a central location for operation. • Requires regular maintenance and updates.
