客户端/服务器模式:设备(客户端)的软件和服务器上的软件进行通信,设备上的软件和服务器上的软件必须匹配,而且只有某些设备和操作系统才支持。
浏览器/服务器模式:在任何含有Internet浏览器的设备(手机,平板,笔记本)上从浏览器直接运行程序。
二者的区别,取决于怎么看他们,如果使用浏览器,浏览器就是指“客户端”,“client/server” 和 “browser/server”两种体系结构没有真正的区别,没法比较,二者可以说是一回事,“browser/server” 就是 “client/server”。
A browser-based architecture runs an application directly from an internet browser on any device that has a browser (laptop, tablet, smartphone). In a client/server environment, the software on the server communicates with software on the device (client). Devices must have software that is matched to the server and only certain devices and operating systems will work.
I think you may be muxing your terminology. When you’re using a browser, IT is the “client” in that case. When you’re using PHP via command line, YOU are the client (or your operating system, depending on you want to look at it).
There isn’t really a comparison between “client/server” architecture and “browser/server” architecture - they are one and the same.
Browser acts as a client. So, in web world, browser/server is in-fact client/server thing.
