When people use the phrases "front -end" or "back-end" its usually with reference to the end user of software system. So any (sub)system that the end-user interacts with directly is often called the front-end. Back-end then, refers to the support systems(systems that help the front-end) that are usually hidden/transparent to the end-user. Databases most often fall into the category of back-end 'cause users won't directly run queries. Application logic could also be also be back end but a popular term for that now is Middleware. UIs are mostly commonly called front-end, but its also possible to refer to web-service endpoints as front-ends. So front-end and back-end depends on who's asking and where he's sitting. |
