Real world scenario: The legacy system consisted of several Motif based GUIs, plus many backend daemons. For updates or bug fixes the GUIs have to be copied to several workstations in the dispatch center. It doesn't end there. In today's world every police car, fire engine, and ambulance has a laptop running applications. For bug fixes or updates with native programs you have to cycle each of those laptops through the shop, potentially a couple of hundred updates. Enter the web app. It runs in the browser, and is distributed from a central server. Update or make a bug fix on the server, all the client apps are automatically updated. Which is more resource intensive, has the most downtime, and has the potential for outdated native programs?
