WEBSERVER and its contents.

To begin the process of configuring a Raspberry

Pi to work as web server, an Operating System of
a Linux Distribution, called RASBIAN, specifically
created for the Raspberry Pi, was downloaded
onto an SD memory card with at least 4 GB of
memory, via another computer, and inserted into
the Raspberry PI . Details of the completed
installation can be viewed by opening the

credentials. A Windows Distribution or a Mac OS

VII.FUTURE SCOPE

This System can be used as a cloud storage. A

download and upload link can be provided to the
website and this server can also be used as a
cloud storage. We can interface more sensors
and control processes. We have use to two
sensors. Also to make it very simple it can be
used just as just a monitoring system
