2. Server Architecture Overview
●Server:
The physical or virtual machine that hosts your applications and handles requests.
●Database (DB):
Stores structured data (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) for dynamic content.
●Domain:
A human-friendly address (via DNS) that points to your server's IP.
●SSL (Secure Sockets Layer):
Encrypts data between users and your server for secure connections.
●File Manager:
A tool/interface to navigate, upload, and manage your server’s files (e.g., cPanel File Manager or command-line tools).

3. How WordPress Works Under This Architecture?
●WordPress Files:
All core files, themes, and plugins reside on the server. These files are managed via the file manager and dictate the site's
functionality and appearance.
●Database Integration:
WordPress stores all content (posts, pages, settings) in a database. The configuration file (wp-config.php) connects the website
to the database, ensuring dynamic content delivery.
●Domain & SSL:
The domain points users to your server where WordPress is hosted. SSL encrypts the connection, providing secure access to
your site.
●Request Flow:
When a user visits your site, the domain routes the request to the server. WordPress processes the request (using its PHP files)
by querying the database and assembling the final page, which is then served securely via SSL.
