Course Overview

The Distributed Systems online course is an 8 weekly program offered by Swayam. A distributed system is a computerized system in which multiple components placed on computer networks communicate and coordinate their operations through the transmission of messages. Multiple components collaborate with each other to attain a common purpose.

Distributed applications or software that operate concurrently on numerous computers in a network and can be saved in the database or in the cloud. This Distributed Systems training gives an in-depth overview of the fundamental ideas and models underpinning distributed computing theory, methods, and systems.

The Distributed Systems syllabus covers some of the emerging topics such as distributed hash tables, peer-to-peer computing, google file system, spark, HDFS, security in distributed systems, and sensor networks. students who complete this course will have a thorough understanding of how things function in a distributed setting.
