Web Based Computing
An overview of web based computing
concepts and applications
Introduction
• • Web-based computing delivers computing
services through the web browser.
• • It allows users to access software and
resources online instead of installing locally.
Concept
• • Operates on client-server architecture.
• • Users interact with applications hosted on
remote servers via the internet.
Examples
• • Google Docs, Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and
online IDEs like Replit or CodeSandbox.
Advantages
• • Accessibility from any device
• • No installation or maintenance
• • Easy collaboration
• • Cost-effective
Disadvantages
• • Dependent on internet connectivity
• • Security and privacy risks
• • Limited offline functionality
Components
• • Web server – hosts the application.
• • Database – stores data.
• • Browser – client interface for users.
Applications
• • E-commerce platforms
• • Online education systems
• • Cloud-based office tools
• • Web hosting services
Future Trends
• • Progressive Web Apps (PWAs)
• • Cloud-native applications
• • AI-powered web systems
Conclusion
• • Web-based computing enhances
accessibility and collaboration.
• • It’s a core component of the modern digital
ecosystem.
