Most of the Net Applications use the Client Server architecture. These terms refer to the two processes or two applications which will be communicating with each other to exchange some information. One of the two processes acts as a client process and another process acts as a server.
Client Process:
This is the process which typically makes a request for information. After getting the response this process may terminate or may do some other processing.
Server Process:
This is the process which takes a request from the clients. After getting a request from the client, this process will do required processing and will gather requested information and will send it to the requestor client. Once done, it becomes ready to serve another client. Server process are always alert and ready to serve incoming requests.
