Both. They are variations on a theme:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu#Official_distributions

"Ubuntu has a server edition[113][114] that uses the same APT 
repositories as the Ubuntu Desktop Edition. The differences between them 
are the absence of an X Window environment in a default installation of 
the server edition (although one can easily be installed, including 
Unity, GNOME, KDE or Xfce), and some alterations to the installation 
process.[115] The server edition uses a screen-mode, character-based 
interface for the installation, instead of a graphical installation 
process. This enables installation on machines with a serial or "dumb 
terminal" interface without graphics support. "

Alright, that opens it up a bit. Right off the top of my head I can't 
come with a replacement.
