Having data stored
and managed in a central location offers several
advantages:
- Each data item
is stored in a central location where all users
can work with it.
Separate copies of the item are not stored on
each client, which eliminates problems with
users having to ensure they are all working with
the same information. Their system does not need
to ensure that all copies of the data are
updated with the current values, because there
is only one copy in the central location.
- Business and
security rules can be defined one time on the
server and enforced equally among all users.
- A relational
database server optimizes network traffic by
returning only the data an application needs.
- Hardware costs
can be minimized.
Because the data is not stored on each client,
clients do not have to dedicate disk space to
storing data. The clients also do not need the
processing capacity to manage data locally, and
the server does not need to dedicate processing
power to displaying data.
- Maintenance
tasks such as backing up and restoring data are
simplified because they can focus on the central
server.
- secure hosting
facility and Network Operations Center using the
latest, most advanced construction techniques.
- No more
replications for new items or corporate
customers.
- Central Payment
and Statement processing.
