We have come miles and miles away...

When I first started my career, I was working on 286 Intel IBM Clone machines with DOS version 5.2 with 100MB hard disk and 5.25 inch floppy disk and 8MB of RAM.
It was the time when DOS 6 was released and we had Clipper Installed for DBMS custom based application. The difference with then famous Foxpro was that Clipper was compilable and distributed as an executable. The installation was simple for distributing your application and only environment settings you need to modify was config.sys and autoexec.bat and ensure you have 8MB of RAM. This was hardly 12 years back. Luckily I had chance to get Windows 3.11 which was network version and that was the time where event driven program was on limelight. I did my course on PowerBuilder and Oracle that remarkably change my outlook in Programming. Quickly I was able to grasp the nuances of Event driven programming.

This was the time when Client/Server Programing was popular. What it meant was the code/business rule sits in the Relational database such as Oracle and the thick Client interacts and controls the flow with the help of DBMS. After that there were several versions of Client/Server Programming evolved.
This let to 3tier Architecture. (to be continued...)
