PeopleSoft Application can be accessed in 3 tier mode using Application Designer. 3 tier connectivity means connecting to PeopleSoft Database via Application Server.
# 3 tier mode is very fast as compared to traditional 2 tier connectivity with DB because in this case no direct connections are established with DB. Also over WAN networks 3 tier connectivity is recommended.

please help...
Great article, I know this was written a while back but I am having trouble setting up my developers to get 3-tier access, not I can get in fine but I am an administrator on the App Server box. Do you know of any network credentials they need on the App Server box? Or even the server for the database. Thanks.
