| - | **Distributed Application (DApp or DApp)** is software that is executed or run on multiple computers within a network. These applications interact in order to achieve a specific [[ddsf:private:guidebook:06_append:glossary:g:goal|goal]] or task. Traditional applications relied on a single system to run them. Even in the [[ddsf:private:guidebook:06_append:glossary:c:client-server]] model, the application software had to run on either the client, or the [[ddsf:private:guidebook:06_append:glossary:s:server|server]] that the client was accessing. However, distributed applications run on both simultaneously. With distributed applications, if a node that is running a particular application goes down, another node can resume the task. | + | **Distributed Application (DApp or DApp)** is software that is executed or run on multiple computers within a network.
