if you were designing a Web-based system to make airline reservations and to sell airline tickets, which DBMS Architecture would you choose from Section 2.5? Why? Why would the other architectures not be a good choice?
What will be an ideal response?
2.5.4 Three-Tier Client/Server Architecture for Web Application is the best choice. The Client consists of Web User Interface. The Web Server contains the application logic which includes all the rules and regulations related to the reservation process and the issue of tickets; the Database Server contains the DBMS.
2.5.1 Centralized DBMS Architecture would not work since the user interface and database server are on different machines for a web-based system.
2.5.2 Basic Client/Server Architecture and 2.5.3 Two-Tier Client/Server Architecture would work if the Business Logic can reside on server other than the DBMS Server. In general, if the business logic was on the DBMS Server, it will put an excessive burden on the server. If the business logic were to reside on the web client, it will burden the communication network as well a possibly thin client.
