Think About It
Goodbye, Client/Server?
Recently, an industry commentator suggested that client/server, as it has existed over the past two decades, may be in its twilight stage. Is this truly the case? Most enterprises rely on client/server architectures for a wide array of enterprise computing requirements. However, some observers feel that the client/server architecture – with clients linked to centralized servers across a distributed network – does not scale well, and does not mesh well with cloud. Plus, today’s cloud approaches render client/server unnecessary for most requirements.
