Serve more for less

Reduce server load and network traffic by converting 'dumb' clients to SmartClient™.

Web browsers are often running on machines that are faster than the web servers they're accessing—so why is the server still doing all of the work?

SmartClient moves more application intelligence to the client, bringing a better balance to web applications in a world where gigahertz-plus client machines are spinning their wheels. By performing functions like page layout, sorting, searching, and filtering in the web browser, SmartClient applications realize several benefits:

• Reduced server load and network traffic - Web applications don't need to query the server for changes to the presentation of data that they've already downloaded



• Improved scalability - As the deployed base of an application grows, the number of client machines grows; SmartClient harnesses the power of these clients to alleviate the server bottleneck.



• Cleaner application design, development, and maintenance - By separating business logic and presentation logic between the server and client, respectively, SmartClient enables a more modular approach to application design and development.



• Improved application responsiveness - Fewer server requests mean less time spent waiting for server responses.

In brief, SmartClient enables you to deliver more sophisticated, more responsive web applications, to more users, with fewer server resources.
