There are two types of web applications,
Presentation-oriented:
A
presentation-oriented web application generates interactive web pages
containing various types of mark up language (HTML, XML, and so on) and dynamic
content in response to requests.
Service-oriented:
A
service-oriented web application implements the endpoint of a fine-grained web
service. Service-oriented Web applications are often invoked by presentation-oriented
applications. Presentation-oriented applications are often clients of
service-oriented web applications.
Web Services
are a technology based on the concept of service oriented computing. Web
services are standards that integrate Web-based applications through connecting
and sharing business processes across the network where applications of
different vendors, languages, and platforms communicate with each other and
with clients. Thus applications involve assembling components of Web services.
Relationship between Web Applications
and Web Servers:
A web
application can be understood as a collection of files (*.htm, *.asp, *.aspx, image files, XML based file data, etc.) and
related components (such as a .NET Code Library or COM Component) stored within
a particular set of directories on a given web server. A web server is a software product in-charge
of hosting our web applications, and it typically provides a number of related
services such as integrated security, File Transfer Protocol (FTP) support,
mail exchange services, and so on.
Example: IIS
Example: IIS
Internet
Information Services (IIS) is Microsoft’s enterprise-level web server software
product; it has intrinsic support for classic ASP and as well as ASP.NET web
applications. When we build production-ready ASP.NET web applications, we will
often need to interact with IIS. Be aware, however, that IIS is not
automatically selected as an installation option when we install the Windows
operating system (also be aware that all versions of Windows can't support IIS,
such as Windows XP/7/8/8.1 Home). Thus, depending on the configuration of our
development machine, we may wish to install IIS. To do this, simply access the
Add/Remove Program applet from the Control Panel folder and select Add/Remove
Windows Components.
