What is the difference between a front-end user and a back-end user?

When you visit a URL you see from the side of all the work that is stored on the back end. Without being to rhetorical the front end is what the World Wide Web live through because of it always waiting to be displayed on the back end.

Another example of their direct connection is when a member needs to use a log in. They access the webpage. They see the log in through the front end. Other than entering the information required all of what happens from that point is all done in the back end. A file of JavaScript is stored on a back end server. Then that tells the information to search a database on another backend server, and verify the input is valid. Then a quick redirect to another webpage either stating the information must be re-entered or a whole new area of member access granted.

Back end storage is the most basic way to understand the back end. When you want to have a picture displayed on a webpage or in an online auction or wherever, it sits waiting on a back end server until the file is requested then for he moment or time it is viewed on the front ed.

The backend is where the internet will continue to be enhanced because companies are constantly building servers and installing or creating applications making the internet a constant work in progress.
