3. REQUIREMENTS OF DISTRIBUTED OPERATING SYSTEM
A distributed operating system (DOS) manages a collection of independent computers and
makes them appear to users as a single coherent system. Unlike traditional operating systems,
which are designed for a single machine, a distributed operating system allows multiple computers
to collaborate and share resources seamlessly. Here’s an overview of key concepts and components
of distributed operating systems
1. INTRODUCTION
1.Distributed File System (DFS):
1. Manages files distributed across multiple servers, allowing for data sharing and access as if it were local.
2.Process Management:
1. Handles the execution of processes across different machines, including scheduling and synchronization.
3.Network Management:
1. Manages the underlying network resources to ensure reliable communication among distributed
components.
4.Security:
1. Implements authentication, authorization, and encryption to secure data and access across the distributed
system.
1.2 Components of a Distributed Operating System
1. Architecture
• Distributed Operating Systems (DOS):
• Comprises multiple interconnected computers that work together, appearing as a single coherent
system.
• Each node (computer) can operate independently but collaborates with others for resource
sharing.
• Traditional Operating Systems (OS):
• Designed for a single computer, managing local resources (CPU, memory, I/O devices).
• Operates on a monolithic architecture where the OS has complete control over the hardware.
2. WHAT IS DIFFERENCES BETWEEN DISTRIBUTED
OS AND TRADITIONAL OS
2. Transparency
• DOS:
• Aims for high levels of transparency (location, migration, replication, concurrency), so users are
unaware of the complexities of the underlying distributed environment.
• OS:
• Generally lacks transparency; users and applications are aware of hardware and resource
limitations, as everything is local.
3. Scalability
• DOS:
• Built to easily scale by adding more nodes to the network without significant redesign or
performance loss.
• OS:
• Scalability is limited to the resources of the single machine; adding hardware usually requires
specific configurations and may not support distributed workloads.
4. Resource Management
• DOS:
• Involves complex resource management across multiple nodes, including distributed file
systems and process scheduling.
• OS:
• Manages resources on a local machine, with simpler scheduling and memory management
algorithms.
5. Fault Tolerance
• DOS:
• Designed to handle failures of individual nodes without affecting the entire system, often
through redundancy and replication.
• OS:
• Typically fails if the single machine crashes, with limited recovery options for preserving state
or data.
6. Communication
• DOS:
• Relies on network communication protocols (e.g., message passing, RPC) to facilitate
interaction between distributed processes.
• OS:
• Communication happens primarily through local system calls and inter-process communication
(IPC) mechanisms within the same machine.
7. Use Cases
• DOS:
• Suitable for environments requiring resource sharing and collaboration, such as cloud
computing, large-scale data processing, and IoT networks.
• OS:
• Best for standalone applications and scenarios where resource access is limited to a single user
or system.
1. Data Management
• Efficient Storage: Must support structured data storage, indexing, and retrieval.
• Data Integrity: Ensure accuracy and consistency of data through constraints and rules.
• Transaction Management: Handle concurrent transactions, ensuring ACID (Atomicity, Consistency,
Isolation, Durability) properties.
3. REQUIREMENTS OF DISTRIBUTED OPERATING
SYSTEM
2. Concurrency Control
• Locking Mechanisms: Implement locking protocols to prevent data conflicts and maintain
consistency during concurrent access.
• Deadlock Resolution: Provide strategies to detect and resolve deadlocks that may occur during
concurrent operations.
3. Data Security
• User Authentication: Ensure that only authorized users can access or modify data.
• Access Control: Implement fine-grained permissions for data access and modification.
• Encryption: Support data encryption for secure storage and transmission.
4. Performance Optimization
• Query Optimization: Use algorithms to optimize the execution of queries, improving response time.
• Caching: Implement caching strategies to speed up data access and reduce disk I/O.
• Load Balancing: Distribute workloads evenly across resources to optimize performance.
5. Scalability
• Horizontal and Vertical Scaling: Support scaling out (adding more nodes) and scaling up
(enhancing existing nodes) to handle growing data volumes and user loads.
• Partitioning: Enable data partitioning across different storage locations to improve performance and
management.
6. Backup and Recovery
• Automated Backups: Provide mechanisms for regular data backups to prevent data loss.
• Recovery Mechanisms: Implement recovery procedures to restore data in case of failures or
crashes.
7. Interoperability
• Support for Standards: Adhere to database standards (like SQL) for compatibility with various
applications and systems.
• APIs and Interfaces: Provide APIs for easy integration with different programming environments
and applications.
8. User Interface
• Management Tools: Offer user-friendly tools for database administration, monitoring, and reporting.
• Query Languages: Support high-level query languages for data manipulation (like SQL) and
interfaces for non-technical users.
9. Data Modeling
• Schema Management: Support the creation and management of data schemas, allowing for
flexibility in data organization.
• Data Relationships: Manage relationships between different data entities efficiently.
