(CO 1) Describe three-tier architecture. Explain the functions performed by each tier. Your Answer:

Three-tier architecture is an architectural deployment style style that portray the detachment ofusefulness into layers with each section being a tier that can be situated on a physically separate computer. Using this, architecture the software is partitioned into 3 different tiers: Presentation tier, Logic tier, and Data tier.

Presentation tier: This is the highest level ofthe application. The introduction layer gives the application’s user interface. Ordinarily, this includes the utilization ofGraphical User Interface for savvy customer cooperation, and Web based advances for program-based cooperation.

Logic tier: The logic tier is hauled out from the presentation tier and, as its own layer; it controls an application's usefulness by performing point by point preparing. Logic tier is where mission-critical business problems are settled. These segments can be utilized to implement business rules, for example, business calculations and legitimate or legislative directions, and information rules, which are intended to keep the information structures reliable inside either particular or different databases. Because these middle-tier components are not tied to a specific client, they can be utilized by all applications and can be moved to various areas, as reaction time and different principles require.

Data tier: This tier comprises ofdatabase servers, is the genuine DBMS get to layer. It can be gotten to through the business administrations layer and now and again by the client administrations layer. In here, data is stored and retrieved. This tier keeps data neutral and free from application servers or business rationale. Giving information its own particular tier likewise enhances adaptability and execution. This layer comprises ofinformation get to segments to help in asset sharing and to enable customers to be designed without introducing the DBMS libraries and ODBC drivers on every customer. An illustration would be a computer facilitating a database administration framework.

A computing architecture consists ofthe following.

(1) Client computers capture user input, send requests for information, and present the results ofthe request.

(2) Application servers enable business logic.

(3) Data servers store data that provide data to the application server.
