### Answer by Hitesh Vohra

## The advantages of distributed system:

- High fault tolerance and reliability: A system crash on one server has no effect on other servers.
- Scalability: In distributed computing systems, new machines can be added as needed.
- It is simple to deploy, implement, and debug new services because of its flexibility.
- Faster computation speed: A distributed computer system may combine the computing capacity of several computers, allowing it to perform calculations faster than traditional systems.
- Because it is an open system, it can be accessed locally as well as remotely.
- High performance: When compared to centralised computer network clusters, it can deliver better performance and cost savings.
