Web front-ends versus Windows | |
|

| Time: 01:54 EST/06:54 GMT | News Source: TechRepublic | Posted By: Bill Roach | ||

Web-based applications have range, Windows programs have more functions. Can Java or .Net resolve the stand-off, and can CIOs get the best of both worlds? CIOs and corporate strategic planners need to regularly reevaluate strategies for every component of their enterprise architecture. Over the past couple of years, most of that time and effort has gone into investigating and implementing data centre strategies. Server consolidation, application server platform choices, capacity and storage planning, Internet security, and other critical issues have been taking the majority of the focus. In large measure, decisions and issues around client platforms have been minimal. | ||

I don't look at this as a versus situation. Sometimes you need a richer client than HTML can provide. Yes Java and Web Forms have reduced some of those difference but sometimes a Win Form is needed.
Not mention that in a web app the processing is done on the server. Unless you are retrieving/storing data on the server then this may be a waiste. |

#4 Kevinu, doesn't that defeat part of the purpose if you are confined to using IE? I remember a while back we were doing a project and I proposed that we use IFrame and other IE specific technology but was shot down. They wanted to be able to use Nutscrape also :(
Also using or not using web service does not change the discussion of a web based gui vs win form. They both can use web services which is just a data exchange mechanism. |
