Hi,
I have a problem with a question in the
SCEA 5 Whizlabs product.
Basically, the scenario given is a web app developed using PERL & CGI scripts on one server, with a Sybase DB on a second server. The question is what are the most notable weaknesses of this architecture. The options given are:
A. Fat Clients
B. Thin Clients
C. Scalability
D. Potential network bottlenecks
E. Performance
I would go for C, D and E.
The answer given is B,C and D.
Part of the rationale they give for in their explanation is that 'Performance is not the best answer here'.
I am surprised that they could use this to justify going for B over E. They give no real reason for preferring B.
Do you agree with their answer?
