According to the client-server paradigm SunSystems comprises of three main components or layers.
The Client Layer
This layer can be installed as a complete entity onto one machine, known as a Client. It enables the user to interact with SunSystems 5 via a Graphical User Interface (GUI). All user input and validation is performed within the Client layer. All communication with the server i.e. downloading updated forms, is handled by the Comms Routines.

The Application Layer
This layer can be installed either with the Client and Database layer in a stand-alone deployment, with the Database layer, or on dedicated Application Server machine(s).

The Database Layer
This layer is dedicated to database management, which can be managed by a proprietary Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS) i.e. Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle. It can be installed on the same machine as the other layers, or on a dedicated Database Server machine.
These components can be installed either as a complete entity onto a single machine, or distributed amongst several client and server machines.
