Two tier R/3 System‑ configurations are usually implemented using special
presentation servers that are responsible solely for formatting the graphical interface.
Many R/3 System users use PCs with Microsoft Windows installed, for example, as‑
presentation servers.

11. An alternative two tier‑ configuration is to install powerful desktop systems and to use
these for presentation and applications (two tier client/server). This type of‑
configuration is particularly useful for expensive applications (such as simulations) or
for software developers.

12. In a three tier‑ configuration, you use your own host for the three tiers. Using data
from the database server, several different application servers can operate at the same
time. To ensure that the load on individual servers is as even as possible and to
achieve optimal performance, you can use special application servers for individual
application areas such as sales planning, distribution or financial accounting.

To web enable‑ the SAP Applications, a Web Server and an ITS (Internet Transaction
Server) are needed. The web service and the services for the ITS can run on one‑
server or on two dedicated servers. The presentation in this configuration is provided
by an Internet Browser. The new SAP Web platform is NetWeaver.
