The document discusses 2-tier and 3-tier architecture, with the 2-tier having direct communication between the client and database while the 3-tier separates the user interface, business logic, and data layers; it provides details on each layer including advantages like improved performance, scalability, and security for the 3-tier architecture over the 2-tier. The presentation was created by trainees of Baabtra as part of a mentoring program to explain different architecture types.
