| A database-driven web site is often implemented with a three-tiered architecture: (i) user interface, (ii) functional module, and (iii) database management system, which uses three foundation standards/protocols: |
|
- HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is formatting and hyperlinking standards.
- HTTP (Hypertext Transport Protocol) is a communication protocol for server client interaction.
- Common Gateway Interface is an interface to external programs.
- Web server is a server-side application program (not hardware) that runs on a host computer and manages the web pages stored on the databases.
- Database server is a server-side application program (not hardware) that holds and manages the database.
- TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol) is the de facto standard Ethernet protocols which are for internetworking and encompass both Network layer and Transport layer protocols.
- NOS (Network Operating System) is an operating system which includes software to communicate with other computers via a network.
