In this article we will discuss about logical and physical architecture of SharePoint 2010.
Here are the common servers available in the SharePoint farm.
Front-end web servers: These servers responsible for publish web sites which are called as web applications.
Application servers: These servers host back-end services, such as the search index service, the crawler service etc.
Database servers:These servers store configuration and content data for the entire SharePoint farm.
A single tier deployment is something like the farm which is build based one single server only.
A two tier deployment is something like: It should have two front-end web servers and a back-end database server.One of the Web servers hosts the Central Administration site and the other handles additional farm-related tasks, such as serving content to users.
And a 3 tier farm has many dedicated application servers.
SharePoint always use a Microsoft SQL Server database for storing farm configurations and content. It creates a main and fundamental farm configuration database as soon as you deploy a new farm. Usually this database is called SharePoint_Config or SharePoint_ Config_<UniqueId>.
