peer-to-peer architecture Last modified: Thursday, October 09, 2003


Often referred to simply as peer-to-peer, or abbreviated P2P, a type of network in which each workstation has equivalent capabilities and responsibilities. This differs from client/server architectures, in which some computers are dedicated to serving the others. Peer-to-peer networks are generally simpler, but they usually do not offer the same performance under heavy loads.

A network architecture in which each computer or process on the network is either a client or a server. Servers are powerful computers or processes dedicated to managing disk drives (file servers), printers (print servers), or network traffic (network servers ). Clients are PCs or workstations on which users run applications. Clients rely on servers for resources, such as files, devices, and even processing power.
Another type of network architecture is known as a peer-to-peer architecture because each node has equivalent responsibilities. Both client/server and peer-to-peer architectures are widely used, and each has unique advantages and disadvantages.

Client-server architectures are sometimes called two-tier architectures.

只查一個沒想到全都出來了,很前面,簡單扼要,我看裡面英文都蠻簡單的,應該不需要翻譯吧

兩者差異在哪寫的清清楚楚....沒啥好凹的啦
