I understand that these terms may have colloquial/marketing uses, however they are also used by professionals, in technical contexts (web dev, dev ops, networking, etc). Just cause the terms are a bit abstract doesn't mean that you can't define them and reason about them. Computers are like 99% abstraction anyway

I have tried to reword my question a bit, to make it more focused. I am assuming, that the problem was with the open ended nature of the question rather than the number of question marks (since most of these sub-questions were just clarifying/rhetorical rather than totally separate questions).

@user9517 The "13 questions" are mostly rhetorical and are meant to refine what part of the main question in the title I need help with. If I removed these clarifying questions and kept only the question in the title, it would be almost certainly closes as "too broad" or that it "Needs details or clarity". Also, the first paragraph of the question indicates, that I tried searching all of the relevant search terms that I could come up with, but was not able to find any concrete information. If my research attempts succeeded, I wouldn't be asking my "crappy question" now would I?
