Shared-nothing architecture

A shared-nothing architecture (SN) is a distributed computing architecture in which each update request is satisfied by a single node in a computer cluster. The intent is to eliminate contention among nodes. Nodes do not share the same memory or storage.

History
Michael Stonebraker at the University of California, Berkeley used the term in a 1986 database paper. Teradata delivered the first SN database system in 1983. Tandem Computers NonStop systems, a shared-nothing implementation of hardware and software was released to market in 1976. Tandem Computers later released NonStop SQL, a shared-nothing relational database, in 1984. == Applications ==
Applications
Shared-nothing is popular for web development. Shared-nothing architectures are prevalent for data warehousing applications, although requests that require data from multiple nodes can dramatically reduce throughput. ==See also==
