Market analysts have noticed a trend toward developing multitier applications that are distributed over Internet-standard networks, and predict rapid growth in these distributed systems in the coming years. Some predict that, by 2005, the familiar architecture of client/server applications will be replaced by “super-suites” of interconnected components, operating in frameworks of widely-available distributed systems. In other words, applications will be assembled from reusable building blocks, by using a variety of cooperating subsystems.
Before delving into the implementation details of building Web applications, it might be helpful to take a brief look at the architecture of the Web from a historical perspective, beginning with the traditional client/server architecture.
