The Internet acts as the main resource of modern society - this is an indisputable fact. Long gone are the days when virtual venues were used exclusively for entertainment purposes. Today, even short-term outages in the network are associated with serious losses for companies. It is only by being linked to the platforms of the global virtual space that instant messaging services, applications in the format of "cloud" technologies, etc. can function.

Access to the vast resources of the network is necessary for not only legal entities, but also individuals. Schoolchildren and students, using the information received on the network, write essays and term papers, a large number of specialists today work remotely - full-scale communication between the customer and the contractor is carried out through thematic platforms of the virtual space. It is difficult to overestimate the importance of having a stable Internet. And who is responsible for connecting to the subscriber's network? Our compatriots turn to an Internet provider for help.

Who is this term called? We are talking about an organization whose main profile is to provide end users with access to the Internet and other related services, the provision of a number of related services. From the point of view of our legislation, a provider is a telecom operator that is licensed to provide a number of services related to:

    • data transmission;
    • provision of communication channels;
    • transmission of voice information via the network;
    • telematic communication services.

The regulatory authorities issue licenses to organizations for a period of 5 years.

Electrical work is carried out by modern providers , a whole range of other activities with the ultimate goal of ensuring:

    • dial-up access to network resources;
    • broadband internet access;
    • wired and wireless access to virtual space.

Popular services from providers are:

    • placement of client equipment on the appropriate provider sites (colacation);
    • support for a virtual mail server or e-mail boxes;
    • hosting in the interests of clients (allocation of free disk space for storing information and ensuring the functioning of virtual sites);
    • reservation of information;
    • lease of servers, both dedicated and virtual (VPS and VDS).

All organizations represented on the specialized domestic market (depending on the type of services provided) are divided into providers:

    • access;
    • hosting;
    • channel;
    • trunk;
    • Last mile.

In turn, access providers are divided into two groups. Representatives of the first are backbone (primary) service providers. They own the main channels for the transmission of information. The second group includes city or house (secondary) providers. In the vast majority of cases, backbone providers do not sell traffic to end individual users, but to secondary providers in large volumes. Most of the service providers in this market niche provide customers with a free connection to the service. We are talking about the implementation of a set of measures, including electrical installation measures to connect the end subscriber to the resources of the virtual space.

Provider - translated from English means "supplier". Providers help to ensure the connection of one user's computer to another, which may be located not only in a neighboring house or city, but even in another country. These are kind of telephone exchanges that are engaged in establishing communication between phones.

An Internet Service Provider (ISP) is an organization that provides Internet access services. Users who connect to the Internet service pay money to the provider for this, taking into account the time they spend on the network. Major providers offer their customers a range of tariff plans.

    Internet providers, in accordance with the types of services they provide, are divided into several types:
  • providers providing Internet access;
  • hosting providers;
  • backbone providers;
  • providers working with Internet channels;
  • last mile providers;
  • and many others.
    In addition, there is a whole list of services that Internet providers can provide to their users, namely:
  • providing access to the Internet using dial-up and dedicated channels;
  • provision of wireless Internet access;
  • providers allocate disk space so that data can be stored there, and ensure the operation of sites, that is, they are engaged in hosting;
  • providers provide support while users work with mailboxes or with a virtual mail server;
  • providers place user equipment on their site (colocation);
  • providers provide dedicated and virtual server rental;
  • back up user data;
  • and much more.

Providers that provide Internet access include primary or backbone providers that own backbone channels, and secondary or city providers that lease communication channels from primary providers. Primary providers in most cases only sell traffic in extremely large volumes and provide corresponding services to other providers. Although there are some exceptions when primary providers provide services to individual users, this is very rare.

    If you look at the activities of providers from a legal point of view, then Internet providers are telecom operators who must be licensed to provide the following services:
  • provision of communication channels to users;
  • provision of communication services in data transmission networks, excluding the transmission of voice information;
  • the provision of communication services allowing the transmission of voice information to the data transmission network;
  • provision of telematic communication services.

Each novice provider, before he starts to engage in his activities on the provision of services, must necessarily legalize his activities, that is, obtain the necessary license for all of the above types of service provision. For this, providers must have all the equipment necessary for this.

Experienced and high quality providers can provide their customers with a whole range of necessary services, which include: the development of the design of the web page and the maintenance of gateways located in the teletype or telex network and many other services.

It should be noted that today there are two main methods on the basis of which the user is connected to the Internet - this is an uninterrupted connection via a dedicated line and a telephone session connection.

General term provider, or internet service provider(Internet Service Provider, ISP) usually refers to companies that only transport function - provide the transmission of their traffic in the networks of other providers.

Internet content provider(Internet Content provider, ICP) is called such a provider that has its own information and reference resources, providing their content - content(content) - in the form of websites. Many ISPs are also Internet content providers.

Hosting provider(Hosting Service Provider, HSP) is a company that provides its premises, its communication channels and servers to host content created by other businesses.

Content Delivery Service Providers(Content Delivery Provider, CDP) are enterprises that do not create content, but deliver content to multiple access points as close as possible to users, which allows users to increase the speed of user access to information.

Application Support Service Providers(Application Service Provider, ASP) provide customers with access to large, universal software products that are difficult for users to maintain. Typically these are corporate users who are interested in enterprise-class applications such as SAP R3.

As the Internet has already become a phenomenon of social life, there is an increasing number of providers providing highly specialized services, for example billing service providers(Billing Service Provider, BSP) provide Internet billing by cooperating with municipal services and suppliers of heat and electricity.

conclusions

The classification of computer networks can be performed based on various criteria. These can be technological characteristics of networks, such as topology, switching method, packet forwarding method, type of transmission medium used. Networks are also classified on the basis of other characteristics that are not technological, such as property relations (private, state, public), the type of consumers of the services provided (operator networks and corporate networks), and functional role (backbone, access network).

Computer networks provide services of two types: information and transport. Often, the term "network services" is understood as transport services, considering that the main function of the network is the transmission of information. Information services are provided by end nodes of the network - servers, and transport - by intermediate nodes, which are switches and routers of the network.

A computer network can be described using a generalized structure that is valid for any telecommunications network. This generalized structure consists of access networks, backbones, and data centers.

A specialized enterprise that creates a telecommunications network for the provision of public services, owns and maintains this network is called a telecom operator.

Telecommunications operators differ from each other in the set of services provided, the territory within which the services are provided, the type of customers on which their services are oriented, as well as the infrastructure in the operator's possession - communication lines, switching equipment, information servers, etc. specializing in the provision of computer network services are usually called service providers. A corporate network is a network whose main purpose is to support the operation of a particular enterprise that owns the network. By users corporate network are only employees of this company.

The Internet is a unique computer network that provides a variety of services on a worldwide scale.

Services provided by the Internet

All services provided by the Internet can be conditionally divided into two categories: information exchange between network subscribers and the use of network databases.

Among the services of communication between subscribers belong.

Telnet - remote access. It enables the subscriber to work on any computer of the Internet network as on his own. That is, launch programs, change the operating mode, etc.

FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is a file transfer protocol. Allows the subscriber to exchange files with any computer on the network. Having established a connection with the remote computer, the user can copy the file from the remote computer to his own or copy the file from his computer to the remote one.

NFS (Network File System) is a distributed file system. Allows the subscriber to use the file system of the remote computer as his own.

Electronic mail - exchange of mail messages with any subscriber of the Internet. It is possible to send both text and binary files. Email is the most widely used Internet service. Currently, approximately 25 million people have an email address. Sending a letter by email is significantly cheaper than sending a regular letter. In addition, a message sent by e-mail will reach the addressee in a few hours, while a regular letter can get to the addressee for several days, or even weeks.

News - receive network news and electronic bulletin boards of the network and the ability to post information on the bulletin boards of the network. Electronic bulletin boards of the Internet are formed by subject. The user can subscribe to any newsgroups of his choice.

In addition to the above services, the Network also provides the following services for the use of databases.

Gopher is the most widely used Internet search engine for finding information using keywords and phrases. Working with the Gopher system resembles viewing a table of contents, where the user is asked to go through a series of submenus and select the desired topic. There are currently over 2000 Gopher systems on the Internet, some of which are highly specialized, and some of which contain more versatile information.

Gopher allows you to get information without specifying the names and addresses of the authors, so the user does not waste a lot of time and nerves. He will simply tell the Gopher system exactly what he needs, and the system finds the appropriate data. There are more than two thousand Gopher servers, so it is not always easy to find the required information with their help. In case of any difficulties, you can use the VERONICA service. VERONICA searches over 500 Gopher systems, eliminating the need to manually browse them.

WAIS is an even more powerful information retrieval tool than Gopher because it searches for keywords in all text documents. Requests are sent to WAIS in a simplified English language... This is much easier than formulating them in the language of Boolean algebra, and this makes WAIS more attractive to non-professional users.

With WAIS, users do not have to spend a lot of time to find the materials they need.

There are over 200 WAIS libraries on the Internet. But since information is provided primarily by volunteers from academic organizations, most of the material is in the field of research and computer science.

The world has accumulated a huge amount of information on various issues. Most often, this information is stored in databases. To publish it on the Web, you had to export databases to HTML documents, which was expensive and made it difficult to find information. Today there is a great deal of experience in such work. Almost any web user has come across such databases more than once. For example, the main thing in the work of the popular search engine Yahoo is queries to the WWW server database by keywords. The server's response is a list of hypertext links to pages found on the Web that contain the necessary information.

WWW or just Web (Word-Wide Web-World Wide Web). It is the most popular web service and a convenient way to work with information. This service appeared in 1992 and became popular very quickly. Today there are at least 40,000 WWW servers. It is thanks to the WWW that the Network is growing so rapidly. Using a simple language of description, you can compose hypermedia documents for their subsequent publication on the Web. To see the content of the document as the author imagines it, you need to have a viewer on the client computer - a browser (the first appeared in 1993 - Mosaic). The most popular Internet Explorer today is that it supports HTML extensions (Hyper Text Markup Language is a hypertext markup language - it is with its help that information is formatted on the WWW).

The WWW is often used as an interface to databases. The user, for his part, can use the ability of WWW to work with hypertext to link his data with WAIS and WWW data in such a way that the user's own records are, as it were, integrated into information for public access. In fact, this, of course, does not happen, but it is perceived that way.

Almost all network services are based on the "client-server" principle.

A server on the Internet is a computer capable of providing clients (as requests come from them) some network services. The client-server interaction is usually built as follows. Upon receipt of requests from clients, the server launches various programs for providing network services. As the programs run, the server responds to client requests.
