A decentralized network distributes information-processing information among several devices rather than relying on a single central server. Each of these unique devices serves as a tiny central unit that connects with other nodes on its own. As a result, even if one of the master nodes fails or is compromised, the other servers can continue to offer data access to users, and the whole network may continue to operate with little or no disruption. Recent technological advances have provided PCs and other devices with significant quantities of computing capacity that can be synced up and used for distributed processing, allowing decentralized networks to be realized. While decentralized networks differ greatly from centralized networks, it is critical to note that decentralized networks do not spread data storage and processing over the whole network.
