2.1.7. Cons for Client/Server Networks

Client/server networks have a few disadvantages, especially for organizations that don't have their own particular in-house network administration or that need to minimize the cost of the network however much as could reasonably be expected. The following are the cons of client/server networks:

a)   Require proficient management: Client/server networks generally need some point of professional administration, regardless of the possibility that they are little. Knowing the ins and outs of a network OS is critical, and requires experience and preparing. You can recruit a network administrator, or you can utilize an organization that gives skilled network administration services.

b)  More hardware-intensive: notwithstanding the client PCs, you likewise require a server PC, more often than not a quite "heavy" PC with a large amount of memory and hard disk. Also, you require a network OS and a proper number of client licenses, which can include no less than a few thousand dollars to the expense of the server. For big networks, these necessities include a huge number of dollars.


In short, pick a peer-to-peer network for minor networks with less than 10 to 15 clients, and pick a client/server network for anything bigger. Since most networks are based on a client/server idea, this book in general supposes such a network.
