A<u>distributed</u>database makes it possible to store information across millions of machines in hundreds of data centers around the globe, with special time-keeping tools to synchronize the data and ensure the data are always consistent.
Explanation:
In distributed databases, a database can be opened, viewed modified or deleted on more than one places. This means distributed databases has a system that integrates the data being used at more than one location. These locations can either be under same network or entirely different network.
All the data is synchronized periodically in order to ensure that changes made at one place are reflected at all other locations.
