Enterprise architecture-This is a term used to describe a way in which an organization conducts its activities that include analysing, designing, planning and implementation to enable successful development of its strategies. This practice applies various principles that guide an enterprise on how to carry it's business, how to pass its information as well adapting to its technological changes.

Distributed system- Refer to a design whereby various component that are located on computer network that is used in communicating as well coordinating actions that help in passing information.this components interlude with one another so as to obtain a common objective.

Example of enterprise architecture

U.S federal Government that aid in creating its architectures as well as improving the business performance and productivity.Examples of this include

· Treasury enterprise architecture framework

· Business enterprise architecture of U.S department of defense.

Example of distributed system

Sensor networks

Banking electronic

Advantages of distributed network.

i. Reliable-in case of failure of one component fails to function the other functions will continue to work thus making it more reliable as it creates a room greater production.

ii. Performance-distributed systems of the functions work more efficient thus increasing the performance as all the functions work together.

iii. Scalable-this means to be resizable thus the distributed systems able to adjust the many systems making use of the light regardless the demand whether low or high.

Disadvantages of distributed systems

a. Limitation of control-this where the functions do not perform well as expected.it becomes difficult to cut and paste as well as pressing the right button.

b. Physical limitation-this is where an individual has small hands finds it difficult that you must stretch your hand or finger to make changes thus making it hard to control.

c. Cost and availability-in order to keep high production high expenses are required keep it in completion.
