4. INTRODUCTION
SOFTWARE COMPONENTS
TIERS OF ARCHITECTURE

5. INTRODUCTION
ARCHITECTURE
The style and
method of design
and construction.
SYSTEM
Group of
interrelated elements
forming a collective
entity.

6. SOFTWARE COMPONENTS
USER INTERFACE
BUSINESS LOGIC
BACKEND

LAYER
Deals with and implements
different data sources of
Information System.
Referred to as Data layer
Implemented using Database
Management System.

10. TIERS OF ARCHITECTURE
1 TIER ARCHITECTURE
2 TIER ARCHITECTURE
3 TIER ARCHITECTURE

11. 1-TIER ARCHITECTURE
Presentation
layer
UI
Application
layer
BUSINESS
LOGIC
Resource
management
layer
BACKEND
Information
system
Presentation, application
logic, and resource
management are merged
into a single tier.
Monolithic Information
systems
Eg: MS Excel

12. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF 1 TIER
ARCHITECTURE
ADVANTAGES:
Easy to optimise performance.
No context switching
DISADVANTAGES:
Monolithic –high maintenance.
Not scalable
Hard to modify.

13. 2-TIER ARCHITECTURE
USER
INTERFACE
BUSINESS
LOGIC DATABASE
SERVER
CLIENT CLIENT SERVER

14. SERVER
Business Logic
CLIENT
2-TIER ARCHITECTURE
USER INTERFACE

15. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF 2-TIER
ARCHITECTURE
ADVANTAGES:
Easy to use
Simple compared to 3-Tier.
DISADVANTAGES:
Performance degrades when users increase.
Problems arise when client beholds most
application logic.

16. 3 –TIER ARCHITECTURE
UI
BUSINESS
LOGIC
User Interface,
Business Logic and
Database Server
are separated.

17. EXAMPLE
USER REQUESTS FOR
WITHDRAWAL
REQUESTS FOR USER’S
BALANCE
DATABASE RETURNS FOR
REQUEST
WITHDRWAL DONE
DATA STORAGE SPACE
USER INTERFACE
BUSINESS LOGICS AND
CALCULATIONS APPLIED HERE

18. ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF 3-TIER
ARCHITECTURE
ADVANTAGES:
SCALABILITY
FLEXIBILITY
DISADVANTAGES:
PERFORMANCE LOSS WHEN DISTRIBUTED OVER
INTERNET
COST ISSUES ON INTEGRATING DIFFERENT 3TIER
SYSTEMS
