Introduction
• The user of a Web-based system interacts with the system using a standard Web
browser
• Enters data into the system by filling out Web-style forms, and accesses data using Web
pages created by the system in a manner essentially identical to those used for the
Internet.
• The orgaizatio’s iteral etwork, ooly alled a itraet, is iplemented using
Web technology.
• To the user, integration between the intranet and the Internet is relatively seamless,
limited only by the security measures designed into the system.
• This system architecture offers a consistent and familiar interface to users
• Web-ealed appliatios offer aess to the orgaizatio’s traditioal appliatios
through the Web.
• Web technology can even extend the reach of these applications to employees in other
parts of the world, using the Internet as the communication channel.
• Since Web technology is based on a client-server model, it requires only a simple
extension of the n-tier architecture to implement Web-based applications.
• As an example, a possible system architecture to implement Web-based e-mail.
• Note the similarity between this example and the three-tier database application shown
• Many organizations also now find it possible and advantageous to create system
architectures that integrate parts of their systems with other organizations using Web
technology and Web standards as the medium of communication.
• For example, an organization can integrate and automate its purchasing system with the
order system of its suppliers to automate control of its inventory, leading to reduced
inventory costs, as well as to rapid replacement and establishment of reliable stocks of
inventory when they are needed.
