Sql Server Interview Questions on File Server and Client Server

Database

Author: Adam Sturo

One of major things in two of this approach is of working with data
but both of these works in different manner.



In File Server Database approach the data is stored in the file and
user have to take data directly from the file. When any change is
to be made it is directly on the file application that is open .The
file and data writes to these files. If 10 users are online on data
then 10 are working and writing on the file.



In a client server approach data is still stored in a file but
controlled by a server all the access in the hand of server. When
any of application wants to make use of existing data then
application request is send to server. After that server reads the
request and send feedback. When any of application wants to writes
something on file the request is send to server the server writes
on the file. One single person reads and writes from this data
files.



Oracle, Informix, Microsoft Sql Server are the best suit example of
client server databases. Single user desktop just like Microsoft
access.



There are lots of advantages of client server databases.



1) Single program reading and writing data the less chance of
accidental changes or crashes of data.

2) Only single program play good role of security so
enforcement of security is easy.

3) Client server databases use network bandwidth more
efficiently then file server databases.

4) All things are handling by single computes so performance
is good and quite impressive.

5) Client-servers databases use some good features that
protect our data just like logging transactions and recovery from
disk and network errors.



Some of these features are also available in file server approach
but these need more expensive client server market. You can also
