CAPprincipe
CAPprincipe is a term that refers to a fundamental concept in distributed systems design, commonly known as the CAP theorem. The theorem, proposed by Eric Brewer, states that it is impossible for a distributed data store to simultaneously provide more than two out of the following three guarantees: Consistency, Availability, and Partition Tolerance.
Consistency (C) means that every read receives the most recent write or an error. In a consistent
Since network partitions are a reality in distributed systems, designers must often choose between consistency and
The CAP theorem has significant implications for the design of databases, cloud services, and other distributed
