What is the problem if we do not maintain consistency in Distributive systems?What is Consistency?Consistency is a fundamental property of distributed systems that ensures that all replicas of a shared data store have the same value. In a distributed system, data is typically replicated across multiple nodes to improve availability and fault tolerance. However, maintaining consistency across all replicas can be challenging, especially in the presence of concurrent updates and network delays.Inconsistency problem in…

Finding an answer as to how to farily divide this cake is not easy, considering Von Neumann (third left) who had greatly contributed to the development of humankind, and the child who represents 99% of the world’s population are both at present.
