what is a distributed operating system
Answers
A distributed operating system is a software over a collection of independent, networked, communicating, and physically separate computational nodes. They handle jobs which are serviced by multiple CPUs. Each individual node holds a specific software subset of the global aggregate operating system.

Distributed system:
In its simplest definition a distributed system is a group of computers working together that is displayed as one for the end user. Machines have a common condition, work together and can operate independently, without affecting the uptime of the entire system. The truth is that the management of such systems is a complex subject, which is fraught with pitfalls.
Distributed systems allow you to scale horizontally and vertically. For example, the only way to handle more traffic would be to upgrade the hardware on which the database is running. This is called vertical scaling. Vertical scaling is good to a certain extent, beyond which even the best tools cannot cope to provide the necessary tools.
A distributed system allows sharing of resources including software connected to the network at the same time.
Examples of system distribution:
Traditional stack. These databases are stored in a machine's file system. Whenever a user wants information, he directly contacts this machine. To distribute this database system, you need to work on multiple PCs at the same time.
