Types of DBMS Architecture

There are three main types of DBMS architectures: single-tier, two-tier, and three-tier. Single-tier architecture has all components on one machine while two-tier separates the presentation and data layers. Three-tier architecture divides the system into presentation, application, and database layers, providing independence and improved security. It is considered the most popular client-server approach used for large websites and applications.

Types of DBMS

Architecture
There are mainly three types of DBMS architecture:

• One Tier Architecture (Single Tier Architecture)


• Two Tier Architecture
• Three Tier Architecture
• 1 Tier Architecture in DBMS is the simplest
architecture of Database in which the client, server,
and Database all reside on the same machine. A
simple one tier architecture example would be
anytime you install a Database in your system and
access it to practice SQL queries. But such architecture
is rarely used in production.

• 2 Tier Architecture in DBMS is a Database
architecture where the presentation layer runs on a
client (PC, Mobile, Tablet, etc.), and data is stored on a
server called the second tier. Two tier architecture
provides added security to the DBMS as it is not
exposed to the end-user directly. It also provides
direct and faster communication.

•  3 Tier Architecture in DBMS is the most popular
client server architecture in DBMS in which the
development and maintenance of functional
processes, logic, data access, data storage, and user
interface is done independently as separate modules.
Three Tier architecture contains a presentation layer,
an application layer, and a database server.
• 3-Tier database Architecture design is an extension of
the 2-tier client-server architecture. A 3-tier
architecture has the following layers:
• Presentation layer (your PC, Tablet, Mobile, etc.)
• Application layer (server)
• Database Server

• The Application layer resides between the user and
the DBMS, which is responsible for communicating
the user’s request to the DBMS system and send the
response from the DBMS to the user. The application
layer(business logic layer) also processes functional
logic, constraint, and rules before passing data to the
user or down to the DBMS.
Goal of Three Tier client-server architecture

• To separate the user applications and physical


database
• To support DBMS characteristics
• Program-data independence
• Supporting multiple views of the data

• Three Tier Architecture Example:


• Any large website on the internet,
Summary

• An Architecture of DBMS helps in design, development,


implementation, and maintenance of a database
• The simplest database system architecture is 1 tier where the
Client, Server, and Database all reside on the same machine
• A two-tier architecture is a database architecture in DBMS
where presentation layer runs on a client and data is stored on
a server
• Three-tier client-server architecture consists of the
Presentation layer (PC, Tablet, Mobile, etc.), Application layer
(server) and Database Server
