Client-Server Models

This document describes different types of client server models. It discusses logical layers including the presentation layer, application layer, and data layer. It then describes five common client/server models: distributed presentation, remote presentation, distributed logic, remote data, and distributed data. Each model involves splitting components between the client and server sides in different ways. For example, remote presentation involves having the presentation manager entirely on the client and the application layer, data layer, and data manager on the server.

Introduction
The Client-Server model is the most prevalent

model for distributed computing protocols.


It is the basis of all distributed computing

paradigms at a higher level of abstraction.


It is service-oriented, and employs a request-

response protocol.

Introduction
Client A client is an individual user's computer or a user application that does a certain amount of processing on its own. It also sends and receives requests to and from one or more servers for other processing and/or data. Server A server consists of one or more computers that receive and process requests from one or more client machines. A server is typically designed with some redundancy in power, network, computing and file storage.

The Client / Server Model


A server process, running on a server host,

provides access to a service. A client process, running on a client host, accesses the service via the server process. The interaction of the process proceeds according to a protocol. An application based on the client-server model is a client-server application.

Logical Layers
In general, application software can be

divided into 3 logical layers:


Presentation layer
Application layer Data layer

Presentation Layer
Presentation layer is responsible for

displaying the information and interacting with the user .


It must make the information available in a

suitable form to the user and must respond appropriately to input from the user.

Application Layer
Application layer processes commands,

makes logical decisions, performs calculations, and coordinates the application


It also moves and processes data between

the presentation layer and data layer

Data Layer
Data layer refers to the management of

underlying databases
It is responsible for storing and retrieving the

data according to the requirements of the application layer.

Distributed Presentation
Only presentation management function

shared between client and server everything else remains on the server Dummy terminals GUI placed in front of existing character based interface, E.g. Windows 3.1.

Presentation management and data logic reside

on client Typical of client/server DBMSs (DB2, Oracle, Informix, etc.)
