N Tier Changing Database

Currently we are running a system on old HP box running Turbo Image,
this is being phase out and there is some debate over when the Databse
should be redesign to run SQL server. We are writing a 3 Tier
Application. One school of thought is we keep going with the Database
we have and its current schemer and once all the bussiness rules
written in the BO layer we redesign the Database then only having to
replace the DAL. Any ideas out there

Reasons for a 3-tier achitecture for the WEB? (NOTE: I said, WEB, NOT WINDOWS. DON'T shoot your mouth off if you don't understand the difference.) I hear only one reason and that's to switch a database from SQL Server to Oracle or DB2 or vice versa... and that's it.... And a lot of these enterprises don't need it as they already know what database they are going to use and they don't plan on switching in and out database in the first...

We've been developing a web site using 3-tier architecture for 18 months now. There is a common layer that defines the classes - using XML schemas. The data layer acts as a wrapper to 3 databases - SQL Server, Oracle and AS400. The business layer exposes web services which communicate with the front end, ASP.Net. All 3 tiers are on different boxes. This works well. Now I am leading a team to build a winforms app. I need some advice as

I am developing a Windows Forms application in VB.NET that will use .NET remoting to access the data tier classes. A very simple way I have come up with is by creating typed (.xsd) datasets. For example dsParts.xsd and including that in the data tier. I then will create a class that looks like this Public Class CPart Inherits dsParts

I'm writing a winforms database application in C#. I've come across a lot of stuff lately about "N-Tier" architecture. Can anyone give me a simple explanation of N-Tier? The descriptions that I've found online are chock full of lingo that I simply don't know. I need the "N-Tier" for Dummies description. Talk to me like I'm in kindergarten. Of course, I'm particularly interested in how N-Tier relates to creating a winforms database...

My application uses a class to access to the dataBase, there are several ones who are bussines objects (and uses the first one to work with the database) and, finally, I have the interface objects. Actually, I don't have any sql embebbed in the code so I'm working with stores procedures in SQL Server. Can I say that this is a n-tier (4 in this case) application? Thank you very much.

Developing a new app and am trying to make this my first truly OOP/3-Tier app. I understand the principles of the presentation, business, and data layers. I do, however, have some questions on where certain functionality should be placed and how some things should be implemented. Let's use a simple example such as an application to manage customer records (customer_id, first_name, last_name). I'd have a Customer business object with ID,...

Hi folks, In an N-tier application, what is the possible values of N??? I'm not kidding, I just interviewed with a programmer today, and he started the "2-tier application" conversation. From then on, I heard about "5-tier application" and then "7-tier application".... I do know what is a 3-tier application, but what about 2, 5, and 7??? Does 2-tier means a "Client-Server" application model? What about 5 and 7??? Would you please...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
