In een netwerk is de "dienstverlener" de computer die het netwerk beheert. In deze computer kunnen algemeen toegankelijke programma's en informatie worden opgeslagen. De "klant" maakt gebruik van de diensten van de dienstverlener door van de dienstverlener o.a. programma's en informatie te betrekken. De opstelling in een netwerk van één of meer dienstverleners en een aantal klanten, die van de diensten van de dienstverlener(s) gebruik maken, wordt aangeduid als "client-server" model.

A term used in a broad sense to describe the relationship between the receiver and the provider of a service. In the world of microcomputers, the term client-server describes a networked system where front-end applications, as the client, make service requests upon another networked system. Client-server relationships are defined primarily by software. In a local area network [LAN], the workstation is the client and the file server is the server. However, client-server systems are inherently more complex than file server systems. Two disparate programs must work in tandem, and there are many more decisions to make about separating data and processing between the client workstations and the database server. The database server encapsulates database files and indexes, restricts access, enforces security, and provides applications with a consistent interface to data via a data dictionary.
