Two-Tier: Typical Network Traffic

In a two-tier configuration, the GUI, event rules, and MBFs are typically handled by the client, and data is stored on the server. Typically, this processing occurs across the WAN between client and server:

  • Fetch Record (client to server)

  • Return Record (server to client)

  • Validate Data Format (client to server)

  • Format OK (server to client)

  • Send Record Detail (client to server)

  • Detail OK (server to client)

  • End Transaction (client to server)
