Intranet Introduction

The internal network does not need to be built from scratch, but is completely based on the existing company's internal network hardware. According to statistics, companies need to manage information, including structured information (such as personnel files
Case) and unstructured information (such as a large amount of text data, pictures, sound, video, etc.), the former only accounts for 20% of the total information, while the latter accounts for as much as 80%. Traditional management information system (MIS) can only manage structured information, so it has limited practicality. The emerging intranet-based Web technology can place multimedia information such as text, graphics, images, sounds, and videos on the intranet. Realizing information inquiry by browsing greatly improves the internal communication ability and information exchange ability of the enterprise. The intranet will play an indispensable role in corporate news release, sales services, improving the productivity of the work group, internal communication and support, employee training and database development. For enterprises, they are more interested in establishing an intranet because it can help companies coordinate internal communications and increase enterprise productivity. The return on investment of the intranet is expected to be above 1000%, and its global output value will greatly exceed that of the Internet. According to statistics, 2/3 of the 500 largest companies in the United States have an intranet system. Countless large, medium and small enterprises can't wait to establish or plan to establish their own intranet systems. A far-reaching global enterprise information system revolution is rapidly proceeding.

Intranet internet

(Internet) is a collection of global information resources. There is a rough statement that the Internet is a logical network formed by the interconnection of many small networks (subnets), and each subnet is connected to several computers (hosts). The Internet is designed for the purpose of exchanging information resources with each other, based on some common protocols, and through many routers and the public Internet. It is a collection of information resources and resource sharing. The computer network is just a carrier for disseminating information, and the superiority and practicality of the Internet lies in itself. The highest-level Internet domain names are divided into two categories: institutional domain names and geographical domain names. There are mainly 14 types of institutional domain names.

Intranet internet

On October 24, 1995, the "Joint Network Committee" passed a relevant resolution: "Internet" is defined as a global information system-1. Logically linked together through a globally unique address. This address is based on the Internet Protocol (IP) or other future protocols. 2. Communication can be carried out through Transmission Control Protocol and Internet Protocol (TCP / IP), or other successor protocols or protocols compatible with Internet Protocol (IP) in the future. 3. Allow public or private users to use high-level services. This service is built on the aforementioned communications and related infrastructure. In fact, because the Internet is epoch-making, it is not designed for a certain kind of demand, but a general infrastructure that can accept any new demand. You can also explain and understand its meaning and value from social, political, cultural, economic, military and other levels. In other words, the Internet is a technology that is developing in depth, and it is a sign that humans have entered the stage of network civilization or the information society. It is very difficult to accurately describe the future development of the Internet. The Internet has already broken through the category of technology and is becoming a link and a carrier for human beings to move towards information civilization. In short, the Internet is the infrastructure for our future survival and development, and it directly affects our way of life. Why is the Internet so popular? Because Internet provides computer network communication facilities for people, it also provides a very friendly access method for everyone. The Internet enables computer tools, network technologies, and information resources not only to be used by scientists, engineers, and computer professionals, but also to serve the general public, enter non-technical fields, enter business, and enter millions of households. The Internet has become the most useful tool in today's society, and it is quietly changing our way of life. What does the Internet mean to us personally? For us, what the Internet is is not of great significance. We just need to consider what it does, for example, send an E-mail, browse the information, look at the stock market, find someone to chat and so on. We individual users do not need to care about how the Internet fits together, where are the objects being accessed, and so on. We just sit at home and pick up the mouse. We've heard too many politicians, economists, futurists, technologists, theorists, and entrepreneurs talking about the Internet age, the information society, and the knowledge economy. After all, the Internet will become a part of everyone's life, just like people eat every day. We believe that in the new century, globalization, informatization, and networking are the inevitable trends of world economic and social development, and the rapid development of the Internet is in line with this trend. It has enabled global personal communications at any place and at any time, and has dramatically changed the way society operates, human learning, and the way we live and work. Another phenomenon is that in almost any industry, any noun can be preceded by the network, such as online banking, online school, online bookstore, Internet phone ... It seems that everything is networked. Today's scientific and technological progress is becoming a determinant of socio-economic development, and international competition has evolved into a comprehensive national strength contest dominated by high technology. Mankind is entering the era of knowledge economy. The precursor of this economic revolution is networked computer and communication technology.
