WebSphere - It is a brand of IBM Software products. It helps to deploy, manage and run e-business applications.

WebSphere app server - A platform to deploy, run and manage j2ee applications. It is in middle tier in Three tier architecture to handle dynamic requests from Webserver . Focuses on transaction, security, session management. WebSphere app server base and express edition works as a standalone entity. The difference between base and express is the license is confined to only 2 CPUs for base edition. Network deployment, a set of servers that share same configuration for Workload balancing and failover.

Webserver - Handles HTTP requests. When dynamic content is required the request is transferred to Application servers. The webserver could be managed / unmanaged. Unmanaged webservers are servers without node agents. The unmanaged webservers plug in is propagated manually and the webserver is placed in DMZ for security reasons. The managed webservers are managed by DMGR and hence the plug in conf file is propagated automatically.
