What is it??

• A client is a piece of computer hardware or software that accesses a service made available by a server.

What does it do?

• The server is often on another computer system, in which case the client accesses the service by way of a network.

How does it work??

• "Your Web browser is a client program that has requested a service from a server; in fact, the service and resouce the server provided is the delivery of this Web page."

Other info

• The biggest advantage to using this setup is central management of the server. Only one server is used to host the resources that all the clients request and use.
