Description: Client-server technology describes the relationship between computers and programs on a network. For the purposes of this article, unless otherwise specified, clients and servers will refer to programs and it is important to remember that these programs can function partially during a request. In traditional client-server technology, a client initiates a request from a server. The server processes the request and delivers the response to the client. This process can take place within a single machine that contains both client and server programs.
