1.) Compare P2P and Client server system?
Client-Server
1.There is a specific server and specific
clients connected to the server.
2.The client request for service and server
respond with the service.
3.It mainly focus on Sharing the
information.
4.The data is stored in a centralized server.4.Each peer has its own data.
5.When several clients request for the
services simultaneously, a server can get
bottlenecked.
6.The client-server are expensive to
implement.
7.Client-Server is more stable and scalable.
Peer-to-Peer
1.Clients and server are not distinguished;
each node act as client and server.
2.Each node can request for services and
can also provide the services.
3.It mainly focus on Connectivity.
5.As the services are provided by several
servers distributed in the peer-to-peer
system, a server in not bottlenecked.
6.Peer-to-peer are less expensive to
implement.
7.Peer-toPeer suffers if the number of
peers increases in the system.
