An increasingly popular option for data distribution as well as for fault tolerance of any database is to store a separate copy of the database at each of two or more sites.

  • A.True
  • B.False

Answer: A

Correct answer: True

A full copy at each of two or more sites serves both purposes at once. It distributes the data so that each site can read locally, and it provides fault tolerance, since the failure of one site leaves a complete database elsewhere. Falling storage costs are what have made the approach increasingly attractive.
