Relational peer to peer database management systems: A survey

摘要

In recent years, P2P architecture has been established as a major means for distributed data sharing systems, and has been broadly utilized for P2P file sharing (e.g. music, movies, etc.). For the last few years, the database community has begun to exploit P2P paradigms for database applications and a few prototypes have been proposed for P2P database management systems. In this paper, we provide an overview of different challenging issues for building P2P database management systems by presenting existing research related to P2P database management.
