Network application architectures are of two major types called Client-server application and the other is peer-to-peer (P2P) architecture.
Client-server network application architectures have a fixed host or server and many other clients who request the services from it. The server has a fixed address called the IP address where the packets of requests from the clients are sent. The server can work on two models-always on and sometimes on. The web and email work on client server network application architecture. It can become defunct or slow when many clients log on to it simultaneously. Thus for busy servers, virtual servers are also created.
The peer to peer architecture doesn’t need a dedicated server to connect. The peers can communicate through their own laptops and desktops. The high traffic intensive network applications use peer to peer architecture.
The P2P architecture is cheaper and mostly free of cost as the host need not pay for bandwidth and connection. Skype and PPLive use this kind of architecture. Most of the university and educational institutes use P2P architecture to stay in touch with the students and teachers.
