Application server is used to serve the logic of the business to the application with the help of different protocol whereas web server is used to handle HTTP requests.
An application server is a computer that stores application programs designed to be run, as services, from a client computer. Depending on the application design, a client computer can run or invoke the remote application via a web interface or by running a client program designed to work with the application program.
A web server is a program (or application program) that receives requests from Web Browsers and responds by sending data back to the browser where it is displayed as a web page.
A web server and a database server communicate primarily through a client-server model, utilizing a network protocol such as HTTP or TCP/IP. When a web server receives a request from a client (e.g., a web browser), it may need to retrieve or store data in a database. To do this, the web server sends a query to the database server using a database management language, such as SQL, and the database server processes the request, returning the relevant data or confirmation of the operation back to the web server for further handling or display to the client.
The Web browser requests a page from a Web server.
A "Database server".
A Tomcat server is a web server and servlet container used to run Java applications, primarily serving dynamic web content by processing Java servlets and JSP (JavaServer Pages). In contrast, a database is a structured system for storing, retrieving, and managing data, allowing for efficient data operations through queries. While Tomcat handles web application requests and responses, a database manages the underlying data that those applications may need to access or manipulate. Essentially, Tomcat serves as the application layer, while the database serves as the data layer in a web application architecture.

"In short, the Advantage Database Server is a high-performance, low-maintenance, remote database server that permits you to easily build and deploy client/server applications and web-based applications".From IT Expert Saqib Khan AND CO.From NUST-SEECS
the client is on the first tier. The database server and web application server reside on the same server machine, which is the second tier. This second tier serves the data and executes the business logic for the web application
