Hi,

Database server - Server running the database (data storage and retrieval)

Application server - Server running the application (i.e. the ABAP programs etc)

Presentation server - The user's PC

So,

1 Db server (the hardware can be clustered and resiliant, but there's only one database),

One or many Apps servers (scale these up for many users and use load balancing to make the most of them)

Many Presentation servers (one per user, at least)

Nick

Hi,

Presentation server is the one the person is using, that is his desk top.

data base server is the database used.

application server interacts with the presentation and database servers.

you can access many application servers and databases throgh rfc connections from your pc., ie., presentation server...
