Meet your server

This is a web server, drawn the way an engineer would sketch it. On the left are three of your users. Every glowing dot they send is an HTTP request: loading a page, adding boots to a cart, logging in.

The server works on requests in worker slots, the bars inside web-1. This one has two, so it can handle two requests at the same time. When a bar fills up, the work is done and a green response flies back.

Right now traffic is gentle, and the server is barely breaking a sweat.
