What does AIX stand for (IBM's AIX Box/server)?

AIX was IBM's flavor of UNIX.  It used to mean Advanced Ibm uniX. \n\n1) From IBM's own wiki on AIX\n\n"AIX is based on standard System V. Most Systems Administrators tend to "fall in love" with the first UNIX version they get to know. They assume all other UNIX or Linux versions are odd, quirky, plain wrong, or bad. But this is not really the case and once you are on to your third or fourth UNIX version you see the common ground between versions is large, each version has its own strengths. and that the prime area of differences is the system admin tools." http://www-941.ibm.com/collaboration/wiki/display/WikiPtype/Home\n\n2) Wikipedia\n\n"AIX (Advanced Interactive eXecutive) is a proprietary operating system developed by IBM based on UNIX System V. Before the product was ever marketed, the acronym AIX originally stood for Advanced IBM UNIX." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AIX_operating_system

Yahoo stands for Yet Another Hierarchical Officious Oracle\nas for the rest...it didn't make any sense. sorry

Back in the eighties when network equipment vendors first started to hawk their wares, the term client/server was used to conjure up a host of fancy capabilities offered by the new hardware. Today, client/server has a very specific meaning that has nothing to do with hardware at all. Even so, most folks still associate the term client with the physical computers they are using and the term server with some other physical computer to which they are connected. There's a glimmer of truth there, to be sure, but today client/server means much more.\n\nWe're going to cover the essentials of client/server computing. We'll define one-tier, two-tier, three-tier, and n-tier client/server program architectures; we'll explain the difference between a thin client and a fat client; and we'll discuss the middleware concept. But first, you need to understand a few things about general software architecture.\n\nMost application programs have three major layers. On top is the presentation layer, which provides the human/machine interaction (the user interface). The presentation layer handles input from the keyboard, mouse, or other device and output in the form of screen displays. In the middle is the application or business logic, the functionality that gives the application program its character. Application logic makes the difference between an order entry system and an inventory control system, for example; it is often called business logic because it contains the business rules that drive a given enterprise. The bottom layer provides the generalized services needed by the other layers, including such things as file services, print services, communications services, and, perhaps most important, database services.\n\nFor simplicity, we will confine this discussion just to those programs needing database services. That's what most architects first think of when they hear the term client/server, but the general rules apply to any kind of service.\n\nThe number of tiers in a client/server application is determined by how tightly or loosely the three program layers are integrated. A one-tier application is one in which the three program layers are tightly connected. In particular, the presentation layer has intimate and detailed knowledge of the database structure. The application layer is often interwoven with both the presentation layer and the services layer. All three layers, including the database engine, almost always run on the same computer.\n\nOne-tier applications are easy to design and write, especially with today's modern software tools. It's also possible to create a multiuser one-tier application by running the application on several PCs and having them share the database. The database can be stored either on one of the PCs (a peer solution) or on a file server. Note that each PC running the application has its own copy of the database engine; only the data is shared, not the database logic itself.\n\nMultiuser one-tier applications are okay until the number of users gets large. The problem is that all the database work is performed in each client. For example, if the program needs to list all clients with the last name of Smith, all the information (indexes and data records) needed to resolve that query to the database must be transferred over the network. For some complex queries, a significant amount of data must be examined, perhaps even the entire database. At a more technical level, it is difficult to manage independent database engines to be sure that no conflict arises when two clients attempt to access or update the same record. This is called the record-locking problem.\n\nThe solution for the performance and technical problems associated with multiuser one-tier programs is two-tier client/server architecture. This type of application is written in mostly the same way as a one-tier application, with the exception that the database service (engine) no longer runs with the client. Instead, it

Of course it has. There are too many flavours of AS/400 for it disappear (RISC, CISC, Netserver, Webhost etc). It has more power than many mainframes, yet is cheaper and smaller.\n\nDB/2 is the most commonly used DB in world.\n\nIt is very popular.

PCI: A computer bussing architecture that defines electrical and physical standards for electronic interconnection.\n\nSlot: A physical connector on a motherboard to hold an expansion card, SIMM, DIMM, or a processor card in place.\n\nIDE: Integrated Device Electronics. A hard drive interface system developed by a group of manufacturers whereby the controller system was integrated into the electronics for the rest of the drive; all of the components were within the hard drive unit removing the need to have a separate controller.\n\nSocket: A method of communication between two processes. A socket is an identifier that the application uses to uniquely identify an end point of communications. The user associates a protocol address with the socket by associating a socket address with the socket.

Yes. System case is the same as computer case which refer to the metal/plastic box of the computer unit.\n\nd10v01b

I assume you are talking about an internal PCI card...a quick google of "PCI expansion card standards" found this\n\nhttp://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/pa-spec5.html?ca=dgr-lnxw82PCIBus\n\nThere is a ton of info on the web.\n\nGood luck!

This is like the old chestnut of Beta versus VHS. The fact is that IBM is the common standard not mac. Jules, Australia.
