A database server that is physically located in one country can be virtually set up to be accessible in another computer located in another country. Hence, a user does not need to be in the same location where the server is to be able to access it.

Networking enables everything to be outsourced or done through alliances.

This statement is also true. Networking is the process of inter-connecting technological devices, such as the computers, to be able to have access with one another and make the transfer….....
