DISTRIBUTED DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM A distributed Database Management System (DDBMS) is a database in which storage devices are not all attached to a common processing unit such as the CPU. It may be stored in multiple computers‚ located in the same physical location; or may be dispersed over a network of interconnected computers. Unlike parallel systems‚ in which the processors are tightly coupled and constitute a single database system‚ a distributed database system consists of loosely coupled

that sends a single message from one process to each of the members of a group of processes‚ usually in such a way that the membership of the group is transparent to the sender. E.g. Sending an e-mail message to a mailing list‚ teleconferencing and videoconferencing. Multicast messages provide a useful infrastructure for constructing distributed systems with the following characteristics: 1. Fault tolerance based on replicated services: client requests are multicast to all the members of the group
