File protection and security compared to peer to peer.
What is meant by the term 'client-server architecture'
A client-server approach is a type of centralized service. You probably mean "What are the advantages of peer-to-peer approaches particularly against centralized services?". Ask your question again.
Almost every protocol uses Client/Server architecture, LAN and WAN alike. Advantages of client server system . * Centralization - access, resources, and data security are controlled through the server * Scalability - any element can be upgraded when needed * Flexibility - new technology can be easily integrated into the system * Interoperability - all components (clients, network, servers) work together
Pretty much a client server network is known as a client server network.
A well kept dedicated managed server will give the client to choose between managed and non managed hosting. Additional advantages are that if your server goes down your site will be taken off-line.
For the internet; your web browser is the client and the web server is the server.
Server program is always running in client server.
A server for a client
(Mail Client Server) e-mail client is also used to refer to any agent acting as a client toward an e-mail server,
A client cannot see what a server is doing; the only thing that can be monitored by the client is the data communication between the client and the server. If the client needs to see what is going on in the server then the client needs to connect to the server using remote desktop protocol, Terminal Services, telnet, or some other way to directly connect to the server.
It is a communication device that goes from client to server.
There is no single protocol used between a server and a client; the protocol depends on what the server and client are doing and how they are currently communicating.
