At that time, both JavaScript and <a href="/wiki/XML" title="XML">XML</a> had already been developed, but the <a href="/wiki/XMLHttpRequest" title="XMLHttpRequest">XMLHttpRequest</a> object had only been recently introduced on Internet Explorer 5 as an <a href="/wiki/ActiveX" title="ActiveX">ActiveX</a> object.<sup>[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a></i>]</sup> Beginning around the early 2000s, applications such as "<a href="/wiki/Myspace" title="Myspace">Myspace</a> (2003), <a href="/wiki/Gmail" title="Gmail">Gmail</a> (2004), <a href="/wiki/Digg" title="Digg">Digg</a> (2004), [and] <a href="/wiki/Google_Maps" title="Google Maps">Google Maps</a> (2005)," started to make their client sides more and more interactive. A web page script is able to contact the server for storing/retrieving data without downloading an entire web page. The practice became known as Ajax in 2005. </p><p>In earlier computing models like client-server, the processing load for the application was shared between code on the server and code installed on each client locally. In other words, an application had its own pre-compiled client program which served as its <a href="/wiki/User_interface" title="User interface">user interface</a> and had to be separately installed on each user's <a href="/wiki/Personal_computer" title="Personal computer">personal computer</a>. An upgrade to the server-side code of the application would typically also require an upgrade to the client-side code installed on each user workstation, adding to the <a href="/wiki/Technical_support" title="Technical support">support</a> cost and decreasing <a href="/wiki/Productivity" title="Productivity">productivity</a>. Additionally, both the client and server components of the application were bound tightly to a particular <a href="/wiki/Computer_architecture" title="Computer architecture">computer architecture</a> and <a href="/wiki/Operating_system" title="Operating system">operating system</a>, which made <a href="/wiki/Porting" title="Porting">porting</a> them to other systems prohibitively expensive for all but the largest applications. </p><p>Later, in 1995, <a href="/wiki/Netscape" title="Netscape">Netscape</a> introduced the <a href="/wiki/Client-side_scripting" class="mw-redirect" title="Client-side scripting">client-side scripting</a> language called <a href="/wiki/JavaScript" title="JavaScript">JavaScript</a>, which allowed programmers to add <a href="/wiki/Dynamic_HTML" title="Dynamic HTML">dynamic elements</a> to the user interface that ran on the client side. Essentially, instead of sending data to the server in order to generate an entire web page, the embedded scripts of the downloaded page can perform various tasks such as <a href="/wiki/Data_validation" title="Data validation">input validation</a> or showing/hiding parts of the page. </p><p>"<a href="/wiki/Progressive_web_app" title="Progressive web app">Progressive web apps</a>", the term coined by designer Frances Berriman and <a href="/wiki/Google_Chrome" title="Google Chrome">Google Chrome</a> engineer Alex Russell in 2015, refers to apps taking advantage of new features supported by modern browsers, which initially run inside a web browser tab but later can run completely offline and can be launched without entering the app URL in the browser. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Structure">Structure</h2></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1251242444"><table class="box-Primary_sources plainlinks metadata ambox ambox-content ambox-Primary_sources" role="presentation"><tbody><tr><td class="mbox-image"><div class="mbox-image-div"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Question_book-new.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/50px-Question_book-new.svg.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="39" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/75px-Question_book-new.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/100px-Question_book-new.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="399" /></a></span></div></td><td class="mbox-text"><div class="mbox-text-span">This section <b>relies excessively on <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability" title="Wikipedia:Verifiability">references</a> to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:No_original_research#Primary,_secondary_and_tertiary_sources" title="Wikipedia:No original research">primary sources</a></b>.<span class="hide-when-compact"> Please improve this section by adding <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:No_original_research#Primary,_secondary_and_tertiary_sources" title="Wikipedia:No original research">secondary or tertiary sources</a>. <br /><small><span class="plainlinks"><i>Find sources:</i> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.google.com/search?as_eq=wikipedia&q=%22Web+application%22">"Web application"</a> – <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.google.com/search?tbm=nws&q=%22Web+application%22+-wikipedia&tbs=ar:1">news</a> <b>·</b> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.google.com/search?&q=%22Web+application%22&tbs=bkt:s&tbm=bks">newspapers</a> <b>·</b> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.google.com/search?tbs=bks:1&q=%22Web+application%22+-wikipedia">books</a> <b>·</b> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=%22Web+application%22">scholar</a> <b>·</b> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.jstor.org/action/doBasicSearch?Query=%22Web+application%22&acc=on&wc=on">JSTOR</a></span></small></span> <span class="date-container"><i>(<span class="date">November 2022</span>)</i></span><span class="hide-when-compact"><i> (<small><a href="/wiki/Help:Maintenance_template_removal" title="Help:Maintenance template removal">Learn how and when to remove this message</a></small>)</i></span></div></td></tr></tbody></table> <p>Traditional PC applications are typically single-tiered, residing solely on the client machine. In contrast, web applications inherently facilitate a multi-tiered architecture. Though many variations are possible, the most common structure is the <a href="/wiki/Three-tier_(computing)" class="mw-redirect" title="Three-tier (computing)">three-tiered</a> application. In its most common form, the three tiers are called <i>presentation</i>, <i>application</i> and <i>storage</i>. The first tier, presentation, refers to a web browser itself. The second tier refers to any engine using dynamic web content technology (such as <a href="/wiki/Active_Server_Pages" title="Active Server Pages">ASP</a>, <a href="/wiki/Common_Gateway_Interface" title="Common Gateway Interface">CGI</a>, <a href="/wiki/ColdFusion" class="mw-redirect" title="ColdFusion">ColdFusion</a>, <a href="/wiki/Dart_(programming_language)" title="Dart (programming language)">Dart</a>, <a href="/wiki/Java_Servlet" class="mw-redirect" title="Java Servlet">JSP/Java</a>, <a href="/wiki/Node.js" title="Node.js">Node.js</a>, <a href="/wiki/PHP" title="PHP">PHP</a>, <a href="/wiki/Python_(programming_language)" title="Python (programming language)">Python</a> or <a href="/wiki/Ruby_on_Rails" title="Ruby on Rails">Ruby on Rails</a>). The third tier refers to a database that stores data and determines the structure of a user interface. Essentially, when using the three-tiered system, the web browser sends requests to the engine, which then services them by making queries and updates against the database and generates a user interface. </p><p>The 3-tier solution may fall short when dealing with more complex applications, and may need to be replaced with the n-tiered approach; the greatest benefit of which is how <a href="/wiki/Business_logic" title="Business logic">business logic</a> (which resides on the application tier) is broken down into a more fine-grained model.<sup id="cite_ref-ntiered_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ntiered-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Another benefit would be to add an integration tier, which separates the data tier and provides an easy-to-use interface to access the data.<sup id="cite_ref-ntiered_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ntiered-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> For example, the client data would be accessed by calling a "list_clients()" function instead of making an <a href="/wiki/SQL" title="SQL">SQL</a> query directly against the client table on the database. This allows the underlying database to be replaced without making any change to the other tiers.<sup id="cite_ref-ntiered_4-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-ntiered-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>There are some who view a web application as a two-tier architecture.
