Move from workstation to

Distributed environment
• The distributed computing system is all about evolution from
centralization to decentralization, it depicts how the centralized systems
evolved from time to time towards decentralization.
1. Mainframe
• We had a centralized system like mainframe in early 1955 but now we are
probably using a decentralized system like edge computing and containers.
• In the early years of computing between 1960-1967, mainframe-based
computing machines were considered as the best solution for processing
large-scale data as they provided time-sharing to a local clients who
interacts with teletype terminals.
• This type of system conceptualized the client-server architecture.
• The client connects and request the server and the server processes
these request, enabling a single time-sharing system to send multiple
resources over a single medium amongst clients.
• The major drawback it faced was that it was quite expensive and that
lead to the innovation of early disk-based storage and transistor memory.
2. Cluster Networks
• In cluster computing, the underlying hardware consists of a collection of
similar workstations or PCs, closely connected by means of a high-speed
local-area network where each node runs the same operating system.
• Its purpose was to achieve parallelism.
3. Internet & PC’s
• During this era, the evolution of the internet takes place.
• New technology such as TCP/IP had begun to transform the Internet into
several connected networks, linking local networks to the wider
Internet.
4. World Wide Web
• During the 1980 – the 1990s, the creation of HyperText Transfer Protocol
(HTTP) and HyperText Markup Language (HTML) resulted in the first web
browsers, websites, and web-server.
• It was developed by Tim Berners Lee at CERN.
5. P2P, Grids & Web Services
• Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing or networking is a distributed application
architecture that partitions tasks or workloads between peers without the
requirement of a central coordinator.
• In a P2P network, each client acts as a client and server.
6. Cloud, Mobile & IoT
Importance of .NET platform
• .NET is a framework that Microsoft has introduced to develop applications
easily.
• A framework can be understood as a collection of Application
Programming Interfaces (APIs) and a set of code that a programmer can
call without having to write it properly.
• The .NET framework is a repository of huge number of shared code.
• This set of shared code has made the lives of developers much easier and
saved their quality time as they do not write the complete code again and
again, instead focus on the code unique to their application.
• Microsoft .NET applications can be written in languages such as C#, F# or
Visual Basic.
• These applications then run on any compatible Operating System.
• .NET framework supports websites, services and desktop apps, among
others.
