What type of architecture does SAP Business Workflow utilize?

SAP Business Workflow utilizes a three-tier architecture. This architecture is structured into three layers: the presentation layer, the application layer, and the database layer.

The presentation layer handles the user interface and is responsible for displaying information to the user. The application layer processes the business logic and workflows, managing the execution of business processes and integrating various applications. Finally, the database layer is where all the data is stored, providing a centralized repository for the information that the other layers utilize.

This three-tier architecture not only supports better scalability and flexibility but also enhances security by separating the data management from application processing and user interface management. By leveraging this architecture, SAP Business Workflow can efficiently handle complex business processes, ensuring smoother performance and easier maintenance.
