    Hi Shireendana,

    A proxy server is a server (a computer system or an application program) that acts as a intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers.

    A client connects to the proxy server, requesting some service, such as a file, connection, web page, or other resource, available from a different server.

    Proxy servers have two main purposes:

    a) Improve Performance

    b) Filter Requests

    Thanks,
    Riju.
