Advantages of Client-Server computing model: ✓ Cost Savings ✓ Effective use of resources ✓ Improved Productivity ✓ Data Sharing (sharing of data is possible even though the user is unaware of the actual location of the data) ✓ Attractive User Interface ✓ Increased availability of data ✓ Migration towards an open system
Disadvantages of Client-Server computing model: ✓ Maintenance Cost ✓ Implementing a client/server application is also not easy since diff hardware platforms speak to each other over a network.
• What is DBMS (Data base Management System): It is software; it is used to store data in the form of tables. It’s not for programming. Actually data is stored in column wise and row wise.
