- Fat client - A fat client is a computer (client) in client-server architecture networks which typically provides rich functionality independently of the central server. Originally just a "client", or "thick-client" in the early days of PC based computing, the word "fat" is in opposition to the "thin" within thin-client, however it typically means that the size of the application which resides on the client machine is large (although browsers such as Internet Explorer, within thin-clients, are often far bigger).
