Using the Web (or past issues of computer industry magazines, such a.pdf
- 1. Using the Web (or past issues of computer industry magazines, such as Computerworld ), locate a system that runs in a client–server environment. On the basis of your reading, why do you think the company chose that computing environment? Solution Common examples of client -server applications are: 1.Desktop application to database server communication ex.Banking Software 2.Browser to web server communication. ex.google chrome browser 3.Mobile to server communication. 4.FTP client to FTP server communication. ex:downloading from filezilla,etc Reasons for chosing client server computing environment: 1) Centralization :This architecture provides a centralized control. Servers help in administering the whole set-up. Access rights and resource allocation is done by Servers. 2) Improvised Management : All the files are stored at the single place. Easy management. Also it becomes easier to find files. 3) Back-up and Recovery possible : As all the data is stored on server its easy to make a back-up of it. Also, in case if data is lost, it can be recovered easily and efficiently. 4) Upgradation and Scalability : Changes can be made easily by just upgrading the server. 5) Accessibility :Server can be accessed remotely. 6) As new information is uploaded in database , each workstation need not have its own storage capacities increased.No needto update every client. 7) Security : Rules defining security and access rights are defined during the server configuration hence more security provided.
