If we had to justify the rationale and the aim of the database approach, what would spring to mind?
- Data Independence: both, Logical data independence, Physical data independence.
- Data redundancy.
"Transparency refers to the separation of the higher-level semantics of a system from lower-level implementation issues."
- Thus, data independence is a transparency issue.
- For a distributed database approach there are other issues.
We want to choose and use those distributed DBMS that offer the highest level of transparency support.
Data replication is common in distributed databases. Which site to query? Which site to update first and then the rest (with cascades)? If a site (or a link) fails then, on re-connecting the isolated sites, the relevant data commits done during the interruption must be updated.

- Data replication is common in distributed databases. Which site to query? Which site to update first and then the rest (with cascades)?
- If a site (or a link) fails then, on re-connecting the isolated sites, the relevant data commits done during the interruption must be updated.
- Transaction scheduling over multiple sites is much harder than the centralised case.
- Lack of experience or complete knowledge.
- Complexity.
- Costs.
- Control.
- Security.
- Upgrading a database to a distributed database is not self evident.
