Pardon me for asking such a basic question. Even as I study for 70-300 I am
not clear on this: Is "enterprise application" well-defined, or is it kind
of a catch-all term? I am not clear on the defining characteristics. For
example, I am now working on a client-server app that is used by different
groups in different states with db connections over a WAN ... is this still
just "client-server" and not "enterprise" ... or can something be both?

I sometimes get the sense that by "enterprise app" people mean an app that
integrates with other major systems, eg with big financial apps such as JD
Edwards. So is such integration the defining characteristic of an
enterprise app?

A few years ago I made a web site for a utility company, and the web server
app talks to their DB2 system through ODBC ... was that just a "web
application"?
