Question: How does a web application differ from a client/server application?

Chartwell Integrated Technologies, Inc. :: Web-Enabled Appli...
Answer: Actually, a web application is a client/server application. The difference between the two architectures is the amount and type of software loaded on the client computer (i.e. the end-user's computer). Both architectures use back-end servers, with at least one server being a database server. Both architectures may have "middle tier" servers that provide business logic or common elements. The web application will always have one or more web servers.
