I am currently using PuTTY to connect to my Linux server. However, I feel like it is unnecessary. Is there a way for me to connect to my Linux server directly from my terminal?

If you have SSH installed on your server, you can connect very easily. Use the below command skeleton to sign-on through a terminal.
ssh username@remotehost.example.com
If you're using SSH keys, ensure that you have them in your ~/.ssh folder. You may need to register them. Otherwise, the system will ask you for your password upon login.
To get more information about SSH and the command, type man ssh into your terminal.
