Parallel and Distributed Computing
A distributed database is a database that is not stored in a single location but is distributed across multiple physical locations. These databases allow data to be stored on different servers, enabling improved access, fault tolerance, and scalability. The data can be spread across various sites that can be connected via a network, and they can function as if they are part of a single system, providing significant advantages in terms of performance and reliability.
