Introduction::
Client/Server is definitely a popular buzz word lately. Is
this technology worth the hype and attention it is getting?
Client/Server technology is a means for separating the
functions of an application into two or more distinct parts.
The client presents and manipulates data on the desktop
computer. The server acts like a mainframe to store and
retrieve protected data. Together each machine can perform
the duties it is best at.
Benefits::
The following are what are considered to be the benefits of
client/server computing.
Many times easier to implement client/server than change a
legacy application.
New technology and the move to rapid application development
such as object oriented technology
Long term cost benefits for development and support. Easy to
add new hardware to support new systems such as document
imaging and video teleconferencing which would not be
feasible or cost efficient in a mainframe environment. Can
implement multiple vendor software tools for each application.
Concerns
The following are concerns for companies willing to
implement client/server computing.
There are many layers of complexity and compatibility
issues between the client and server.
Cost will rise in the short term since you will need to
maintain the old system (mainframe) and the new client
server architecture development.
Capabilities of the software such as security and
management tools are not as mature as mainframe counterparts.
Takes time to become proficient with these tools.
Information System departments may balk at giving up
control of a centralized computing environment.
