distributed database

A distributed database is a database in which portions of the database are stored in multiple physical locations and processing is distributed among multiple database nodes. Typically, a centralized distributed database management system (DDBMS) integrates the data logically so it can be managed as if it were all stored in the same location. The DDBMS synchronizes all the data periodically and ensures that updates and deletes performed on the data at one location will be automatically reflected in the data stored elsewhere.
