What is the difference between Two Tier and Three Tier
Architecture?

Answer Posted / prathibha

In a modern two-tier architecture the server holds both the
application and the data. The application resides on the
server rather than the client probably because the server
will have more processing power and disk space than the PC.

In a three-tier architecture the data and applications are
split onto seperate servers with the server-side distributed
between a database server and an application server. The
client is a front end simply requesting and displaying data.
Reason being that each server will be dedicated to
processing either data or application requests hence a more
manageable system and less contention for resources will occur
