In the remote configuration, the Progress client and schema holder run on a client machine and the Progress server components and any SQL Server™ client software run on a remote server machine. The actual target database may be local or remote to the machine where the Progress DataServer for SQL Server™ executes. With the SQL Server™ client software supplied modules that manage networked database communications, a remote database configuration is possible. The DataServer cares only about the data source definition on its machine. Remote database access is transparent to the DataServer.
In remote DataServer configurations, Progress handles the communication between the client and the server. The client and server processes that make up the DataServer adapt to a variety of network configurations.
Table 1–2 lists the supported configurations for setting up a remote DataServer. It contains possible client-server combinations and networking options.
