A personal web server, or ''personal server'' in short, allows users to store, selectively share, or publish information on the web or on a home network. Unlike other types of web servers, a personal web server is owned or controlled by an individual, and operated for the individual's needs, instead of by a company. It can be implemented in different ways: * as an appliance * as a general-purpose server, such as a Linux server, which may be located at the owner's home or in a data center * in a shared hosting model, where several users share one physical server by means of virtualization, or virtual hosting. * as one feature of a computer that is otherwise also used for other purposes. A personal web server is conceptually the opposite of a web server, or website, operated by third parties, in a SaaS/cloud model. ==Advantages== * Privacy: as the personal server is owned by the individual that derives the main benefit from it, they are in control of who else may access information on the server * Autonomy: the owner of the personal server decides which applications to run on the server, who to allow access to, when to upgrade, etc. * Hackability: the owner of the personal server can configure and change any aspect of the personal server 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Personal web server」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
