Actually the question is in the subject. All that is on a three-tier architecture - an article in the wiki . I cannot find any specific examples. How should the client and the application server communicate with each other? In what form the data received from the database should be transmitted to the client. Everything is very vague in this matter. Google offers one way or another WinForm client + WCF / ASP.NET WebService / Remoting / ... + SQL Server. Help. Direct on the right path :)

    In this question and the answers to it there is a little bit of useful information: [Help with understanding the client-server (if clients are different)?] [1] [1]: hashcode.ru/questions/257702/… - Shad

Three-tier architecture is nothing more than a principle. And you can build it on any technology, the benefit of a million and a small truck.

How should the client and the application server communicate with each other?

Google according to the words "web service", "soap", REST, "json rpc" and so on and so on.

In what form the data received from the database should be transmitted to the client.

In any way it is more convenient for the messaging protocol between the client and the server. For example, JSON, XML, binary serialized object, etc.
