Distributed Databases Questions
Data availability in a distributed database refers to the ability of users to access and retrieve data from any location within the distributed system. It ensures that data is consistently and readily available to users, regardless of their physical location or the location of the data.
Transparency in a distributed database refers to the ability of users to access and manipulate data without being aware of the underlying distribution and fragmentation of the database. It hides the complexities of the distributed nature of the database system, providing a unified and seamless view of the data to users.
