Raj Kumar · Answer

In larger applications MVC is the presentation tier only of an N-tier architecture. The models views and controllers are only concerned with the presentation, and make use of a middle tier to populate the models with data from the data tier. MVC can also be used as the entire 3-tier architecture where Views are your presentation, Controllers are your business logic and Models are your data layer (usually generated by a DAL such as Entity Framework). Ideally though you want your controllers to be skinny and dumb, passing off logic to a 'business component', which would essentially become your middle tier.

Both MVC and 3 tier architecture cannot be compared as MVC is a framework and 3 tier architecture is a programming model.

hi, As Per me, In any large application MVC is just used as presentation layer. Model view and controllerare only concerned with the presentation. MVC can also be used as 3-tire architecture where view is used as Presentation layer, controllers are used as Business Layer and Model are become Data Access Layer. In the 3-tier architecture, communication between tiers is bi-directional. In the MVC the communication is in unidirectional. MVC is a design pattern itself that can be used in presentation tier. hope this will help you.
