The PRSKB tool is composed of a client, a server, and a database. The user interacts with the client, which is either the web tool (https://prs.byu.edu), or the command-line interface (CLI). The client connects to the server that then retrieves and returns data from the PRSKB database to the client. The arrows in this diagram represent the flow of data. Boxes represent specific actions a PRSKB user can take with an icon indicating the client type for each box.
