Client server architecture

  Client server architecture Client - server architecture  is distributed  model  representing dispersed responsibilities among independent computers integrated across a network. Therefore,  it's  easy to replace, repair, upgrade and relocate a  server  while  client  remains unaffected. Advantages of Client-Server Architecture: Organizations often seek  opportunities to maintain services and quality competition to sustain its market position with the help of technologies. Deployment of client-server computing in an organization will effectively increase its productivity through the usage of  cost-effective user interface, enhanced data storage, vast connectivity and reliable application services Improved Data Sharing:   Data is retained by usual business processes and manipulated on a server is available for designated users (clients) over an authorized access. Integration of Services:   Every client is given the opp...
