Discuss the CAP Theorem and the three desirable properties it mentions
According to Dr. Eric Brewer, there are three commonly desirable properties in any highly distributed data system -
consistency, availability, and partition tolerance. However, it is impossible for a system to provide all three at the same
time
Consistency takes a bigger role in a distributed database. All nodes should see the same data at the same time which means the replicas should be immediately undated. This involves dealing with latency and network partitioning delay.
Availability is a paramount requirement of all web-centric organizations. No received request should ever be lost and requests should always be filled by the system.
Partition tolerance means the system continues to operate even in the event of a node failure and will fail only if all nodes fail.
