The internet is a global system of interconnected computer network that use the standard internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to serve billions of users worldwide. It is a network […]
A computer network is a system that connects two or more computers together using a communication link. It describes a processing system with a number of independent, relatively low-speed, online, simultaneously usable workstations. In a network, remotely located computer stations are connected to a centrally located sophisticated, high-speed processor via a communication link (telephone lines, […]
A Distributed database (DDB) is a collection of multiple, logical interrelated database distributed over a computer network. A Distributed database management system (DDBMS) is the software that manages the DDB and provides an access mechanism that makes this distribution transparent to the users.

Parallel Database improve processing and input/output speeds by using multiple CPU and disks in parallel. A Parallel Database system seeks to improve performance through parallelization of various operations, such as loading data, building indexes and evaluating queries. In Parallel processing, many operations are performed simultaneously, as opposed to serial processing, in which the computational steps […]
Crash recovery is the process by which the database is moved back to a consistent and usable state. This is done by rolling back incomplete transactions and completing committed transactions that were still in memory when the crash occurred. When the database is in a consistent and usable state, it has attained what is known […]
