DESCRIPTION
If FastRequest HelpDesk is very requested on your network, you can switch to client-server mode. These advantages are:
-
Stability
- If a client machine crashes or gets disconnected from the server, other users are not affected, and there is little chance of database corruption.
-
Security
- By securing access to the database server computer, you secure access to your data, as the CodeBase server enforces user logon and file access security on your network.
-
Performance
- In situations where data files are large, client/server can boost performance by executing queries on the server, and then returning only a small result set to the client.
This speeds performance and significantly reduces network traffic.
-
Workload Sharing
- When you run a client/server application in essence you have two computers working on a single task. This sharing of the workload reduces the performance requirements for both machines, and in the case where the server machine is more powerful, adds significant processing power to each client, resulting in an excellent hardware cost-to-performance ratio.
