Client Server Applications
|
|
Client/Server architecture is one of the central ideas of network computing. Most
of today's business applications use this model, in which applications or data are
requested from one computer (the client) and provided by another computer (the server).
It is usually distinguished from the older, centralized, mainframe computer model
by the use of small and dispersed computers. Today, however, even mainframe computers
use the Client/Server architecture. The two types of Client/Server architecture
are:
|
|
Two-tier architecture
|
|
The user interface is normally located in the user's desktop and the database processes
are handled by a powerful server. The business rules could be handled either by
the client or the server, depending on the application. While simple, this architecture
offers less scalability and restricts flexibility.
|
|
|
Three-tier or multi-tier architecture
|
|
This is an evolutionary step which adds a middle-tier to increase flexibility. The
middle-tier could include application servers, transaction processing monitors,
and message queue servers. It can provide a variety of services, including message
queuing and database staging. This architecture improves performance, flexibility,
and scalability, and usually involves complex application development.
