Help: Technical questions

Hi,

I'm evaluating different Dababases for out specific applications. We have two different type of applications to access the Database.

One of the application will access the Database on a remote machine throgh the TCP/IP network and. Another application will access the Database on the same machine where the Database engine is resided.

Since the 99% of the Database access will come from the application which is run on the same machine, I prefer that there is more efficient way to access the Database between the client and server.

After look the Oracle books in the book store, I found that Oracle support the "Host Terminal Type applications". Does "Host Terminal Type applications" mean the communication between client and server is bypass the TCP/IP stack?

I appreciate that if you can answer me the question?
