Just a thought of having separate servers for database and web landed me on the following links:
- Why is it not advisable to have the database and web server on the same machine? – Stack Overflow
- Should SQL Server be on the same machine as your IIS installation?
My catch:
Single Server
Pros: Performance gain, less latency time
Cons: Vulnerable
Separate servers
Pros: Security advantage, scalability
Cons: Expense on extra hardware
