Applications of distributed computing

continuous multimedia operated and presented to users by a provider

building or room where computer servers and related equipment are operated

layer in the Internet ecosystem addressing bottlenecks

database in which data is stored across different physical locations

control system in which the controller elements are not central in location but are distributed throughout the system

computer system, e.g. a computer cluster, for rendering computer-generated imagery (CGI)

P2PTV refers to peer-to-peer (P2P) software applications designed to redistribute video streams in real time on a P2P network; the distributed video streams are typically TV channels from all over the world but may also come from other sources. The draw to these applications is significant because they have the potential to make any TV channel globally available by any individual feeding the stream into the network where each peer joining to watch the video is a relay to other peer viewers, allowing a scalable distribution among a

open-source NoSQL database

problem which is trivially divided into parallelized tasks

FoundationDB is a free and open-source multi-model distributed NoSQL database owned by Apple Inc. with a shared-nothing architecture. The product was designed around a "core" database, with additional features supplied in "layers." The core database exposes an ordered key–value store with transactions. The transactions are able to read or write multiple keys stored on any machine in the cluster while fully supporting ACID properties. Transactions are used to implement a variety of data models via layers.
