1 12 Chapter 12 Client/Server Systems Database Systems: Design, Implementation, and Management, Fifth Edition, Rob and Coronel

2 12 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5 th Edition, Rob & Coronel 2 In this chapter, you will learn: What client/server computing is What the advantages of using client/server systems are How client/server systems evolved About client/server systems components and how they interact What effect the client/server system has on the DBMS How client/server systems might be introduced into an organization What factors affect the implementation of client/server systems

3 12 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5 th Edition, Rob & Coronel 3 Client/Server Computing Computing model for the development of computerized systems –Client requests specific service –Server provides requested service Reside on same or different computers Figure 12.1

4 12 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5 th Edition, Rob & Coronel 4 Client/Server Computing (con’t.) Key to client server power is where request processing takes place Extent of sharing processing –Thin client –Thin server –Fat client –Fat server Classification –2-tier –3-tier

5 12 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5 th Edition, Rob & Coronel 5 Forces that Drive Client/Server Trend Changing business environment Growing need for enterprise data access Demand for end-user productivity gains based on efficient use of data Technological advances Growing cost/performance advantages

6 12 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5 th Edition, Rob & Coronel 6 Evolution of Computing Environment Figure 12.2

8 12 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5 th Edition, Rob & Coronel 8 Managerial Expectations of Client/Server Systems Client/Server efficiency functions –Platform independent development –Optimized distribution of processing activities among different platforms –User friendly and cost effective techniques, methodologies, and specialized tools Observations –Tool, not end goal –Not answer to all data management problems –Has own set of management problems

9 12 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5 th Edition, Rob & Coronel 9 MIS Expectations of Client/Server Benefits Reduced development and implementation costs Reduced development time and increased programmer productivity Extended system life cycle through scalability and portability Reduced system operational cost Change of MIS function from development to end- user support Enhanced information deployment

10 12 Database Systems: Design, Implementation, & Management, 5 th Edition, Rob & Coronel 10 Organizational Expectations of Client/Server Benefits Flexibility and adaptability Improved employee productivity Improved company work flow and way to reengineer business operations New opportunities for competitive advantages Increased customer service satisfaction
