Problems

  • Distributed database design: how DB and applications should be placed across the sites.
  • Distributed query processing: how to make a cost-effective query.
  • Distributed directory management: may be global or local to each site, centralised or distributed over multiple sites, single or multiple copies.
  • Distributed concurrency control: two approaches include locking and time-stamping.
  • Distributed deadlock management: same as normal DB.
  • Reliability of distributed DBMS: if no mechanisms are in place.
  • Operating system support: can become a bottleneck to whole system. In distributed environment additional problem of having to deal with multiple layers of network of software.
  • Heterogeneous databases,
  • Relationship among problems mentioned above.
