| | Client-server - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Server software generally, but not always, runs on powerful computers dedicated for exclusive use to running the business application. | | | Clients get all or most of their information and rely on the application server for things such as configuration files, stock quotes, business application programs, or to offload computer-intensive application tasks back to the server in order to keep the client computer (and client computer user) free to perform other tasks. | | | A computer requiring a particular service will check with the trading service for the address of a computer providing such a service. |

| | Client / Server Computing |
| | The server computes the results of the query. | | | In short, client/server computing provides a mechanism for disparate computers to cooperate on a single computing task. | | | The client/server model is a form of distributed computing where one program (the client) communicates with another program (the server) for the purpose of exchanging information. |

| | Client/Server Computing Consider This |
| | The difference between client/server computing and the mainframe computing that it often supersedes is that the client is not a dumb terminal. | | | Overall client/server computing leads to a flexible and dynamic computing environment. | | | The client can be a personnel computer (PC) or the soon to be released network computer (NC.) The server can be anything from a mainframe to a PC but is usually a platform suited for a specific application or task. |

| | Server-Based Computing |
| | Basically, the server-based computing approach delivers all the benefits of both host computing and personal computing. | | | Server-based computing is made possible by two Citrix technologies: Citrix Independent Computing Architecture (ICA®) and Citrix MultiWin. | | | Users share the computing power of the server for all computing needs. |

| | N-TIER - ARTICLES ~ Client/Server Overview |
| | N-Tier computing accomplishes a synergistic combination of computing models, by providing centralized common services in a distributed environment. | | | N-Tier computing is usually considered the most effective approach because it can provide integration of current information technology into this new, more flexible model. | | | C/S computing architecture is currently the heart and soul of enabling technologies like groupware and workflow systems. |

| | Server Computing and the Network Edge |
| | A number of approaches making headlines today -- mesh computing, peer-to-peer computing, autonomic (self-healing) computing, and grid computing -- are part and parcel of the edge computing concept. | | | Edge computing, as the name implies, involves pushing data and computing power away from a centralized point to the logical extremes of a network. | | | Edge computing comes in many shapes and flavors, and the view on the edge differs depending the customer. |

| | The Evolution of Client/Server Computing |
| | This technology is a computing architecture that forms a composite system allowing distributed computation, analysis, and presentation between PCs and one or more larger computers on a network. | | | The improved capacity of personal computers were largely ignored or used on an individual level. | | | Over the years, personal computers started to replace these dumb terminals but the processing continued to be done on the mainframe. |

| | Client/Server Frequently Asked Questions |
| | In database servers, clients passes SQL (Structured Query Language) requests as messages to the server and the results of the query are returned over the network. | | | Workstations support the presentation and function logic and interface with the data server through the data manipulation language.Distributed data management is an extension of remote data management and uses the distributed facilities of the DBMS to access distributed data in a manner transparent to users. | | | The logical extension of this is to have clients and servers running on the appropriate hardware and software platforms for their functions. |

| | Client/Server Software Architectures--An Overview |
| | The difference between TP monitor technology and message server is that the message server architecture focuses on intelligent messages, whereas the TP Monitor environment has the intelligence in the monitor, and treats transactions as dumb data packets. | | | With mainframe software architectures all intelligence is within the central host computer. | | | The term client/server was first used in the 1980s in reference to personal computers (PCs) on a network. |

| | Client/Server Computing |
| | The "new" thing in computing these days is the notion of a multi-tiered "client/server" system. | | | It is hardly a new notion; computer systems have been doing this sort of thing for many years now. | | | PC/LAN systems provide the opposite pathological case where there would be a file server where shared files would reside, and substantially all system logic resided as part of a program running on each PC. |

| | Updated: Server-Based Computing Software Roundup |
| | The bottom line with Terminal Server is that it can stand on its own in certain environments where users will be accessing full remote desktops, but it cries out for third-party tools in larger and more complex environments. | | | For years, Citrix has been the only choice for software to power server-based computing environments. | | | Honestly if you're talking 50 users running PhotoShop on 1 server I'd say you'd be better served to invest in a decent clientless VPN and let them use a local copy of Photoshop to edit the network based JPG files. |

| | It is possible and common for a machine to be both a server and a client, but for our purposes here you can think of most machines as one or the other. | | | For example, if you are running a Web browser on your machine, it will most likely want to talk to the Web server on the server machine. | | | Therefore, it is a user machine, also known as a client. |
