Abstract

The World Wide Web is used by millions of people everyday for various purposes including email, reading news, downloading music, online shopping or simply accessing information about anything. Using a standard web browser, the user can access information stored on Web servers situated anywhere on the globe. This gives the illusion that all this information is situated locally on the user’s computer. In reality, the Web represents a huge distributed system that appears as a single resource to the user available at the click of a button. This paper gives an overview of distributed systems in current IT sector. Distributed systems are everywhere. The internet enable users throughout the world to access its services wherever they may be located [1]. Each organization manages an intranet, which provides local services for local users and generally provides services to other users in the internet. Small distributed systems can be constructed from mobile computers and other small computational devices that are attached to a wireless network.
