This page provides a starting point for finding information about application clients and client applications. Application clients provide a framework on which application code runs, so that your client applications can access information on the application server.
For example, an insurance company can use application clients to help offload work on the server and to perform specific tasks. Suppose an insurance agent wants to access and compile daily reports. The reports are based on insurance rates that are located on the server. The agent can use application clients to access the application server where the insurance rates are located.

Application Clients for WebSphere® Application Server follow several programming models with unique requirements and suitability for different types of applications. Most of these models are only available when you install the product.
Explore the key concepts related to client applications. You can write client applications that run separately from your application server and use the framework provided by an underlying client to access the resources provided by WebSphere Application Server.
