Application Server Software that houses and serves business logic for use (and reuse) by multiple
applications in a distributed system.
Web services Small pieces of code that are accessed via the application server which permit
interoperable machine-to-machine interaction over a network.
Server a computer or computer program that manages access to a centralized resource
or service in a network. Or a program that fulfills requests.
distributed computing A form of computing where systems in different locations communicate and
collaborate to complete a task.
What are the downsides of increased connectivity? Increased risk of hacking and other security based losses.
client/server computing A model for computing that splits processing between clients and servers on a
network, assigning functions to the machine most able to perform the function.
Web Server a computer that delivers requested webpages to your computer or mobile device
Distributed computing A form of computing where systems in different locations communicate and
