A distributed system is a collection of independent nodes that communicate through message passing to act as a single coherent system. It appears as a single computer to end users but is actually composed of separate hardware/software components. There are two general types: systems where each node works towards a common goal, and systems that facilitate sharing resources between independent machines. Benefits include scalability, reliability and performance, while challenges include lack of shared clock/memory and ensuring concurrency. Common architectures are client-server, n-tier and peer-to-peer.

nodes What is Distributed System? A distributed system is a collection of separate and independent software/hardware components, called nodes, that are networked and work together coherently by coordinating and communicating through message passing or events, to fulfill one end goal. What is Distributed System? Nodes could be unstructured or highly structured, depending on the system requirements. And the complexities of the system are hidden to the end user, making the whole system appear as single computer to it users. What is Distributed System? nodes

Characteristic of a Distributed System
1. No Shared Clock 2. No Shared Memory 3. Concurrency 4. Heterogeneity and Loose Coupling Characteristic of a Distributed System
1. No Shared Clock 2. No Shared Memory 3. Concurrency 4. Heterogeneity and Loose Coupling There are two general ways that distributed systems function: 1.Each machine works toward a common goal and the end-user views results as one cohesive unit. 2.Each machine has its own end-user and the distributed system facilitates sharing resources or communication services. Benefits and challenges of distributed systems. 1. Horizontal Scalability 2. Reliability 3. Performance Types of distributed systems
Distributed systems generally fall into one of four
