What are Distributed Databases?
Distributed databases store data across multiple physical locations, often across different servers or even geographical regions, allowing for high availability and scalability. Unlike traditional databases, distributed databases divide data and workloads among nodes in a network, providing faster access and load balancing. They are designed to be resilient, with redundancy and data replication ensuring that data remains accessible even if some nodes fail. Distributed databases are essential for applications that require quick access to large volumes of data across multiple locations, such as global eCommerce, finance, and social media. By decentralizing data storage, they support high-performance, fault-tolerant operations that scale with an organization’s needs.
