Centralized System Characteristics
Centralized System Characteristics
A distributed system is
a software system in
which components
located on networked
computers communicate
and coordinate their
actions by passing
messages. The
components
interact with each other
in order to achieve a
common goal.
Distributed systems
Principles
A distributed system
consists of a collection of
autonomous computers,
connected
through a network and
distribution middleware,
which enables computers
to coordinate their
activities and to share
the resources of the
system, so that users
perceive the system as a
single,
integrated computing
facility.
Centralised System
Characteristics
One component with
non-autonomous parts
Component shared by
users all the time
All resources
accessible
Software runs in a
single process
Single Point of control
Single Point of failur

Centralized System Characteristics:
One component with non-autonomous parts.
Components shared by users all the time.
All resources accessible.
Software runs in a single process.
Single point of control.
Single point of failure.
Resource Sharing
Heterogeneity
Concurrency
Scalability
Scalability is mainly concerned about how the distributed
system handles the growth as the number of users for the
system increases. Mostly we scale the distributed system by
adding more computers in the network. Components should
not need to be changed when we scale the system.
Components should be designed in such a way that it is
scalable.
Fault Tolerance
Transparency
