When we define schema for Database, does it has to on the server side or the client side?

28,558 PointsThe schema and pretty much everything else related to the creation and management of the database is done on the server, not client.
If the schema was defined on the client then it could easily be modified by anybody who visited your site. Any code that needs to be somewhat tamper proof has to be stored on the server.
