 **Massively Parallel Processing (MPP)** is the coordinated processing of a program by multiple [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​p:​processor|processors]] that work on different parts of the program, with each processor using its own [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​o:​os|operating system]] and memory . Typically, MPP processors communicate using some messaging [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​i:​interface|interface]]. In some implementations,​ up to 200 or more processors can work on the same [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​a:​application|application]]. An "​interconnect"​ arrangement of data paths allows messages to be sent between processors. Typically, the setup for MPP is more complicated,​ requiring thought about how to partition a common database among processors and how to assign work among the processors. An MPP system is also known as a "​loosely coupled"​ or "​shared nothing"​ system. **Massively Parallel Processing (MPP)** is the coordinated processing of a program by multiple [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​p:​processor|processors]] that work on different parts of the program, with each processor using its own [[dido:​public:​ra:​xapend:​xapend.a_glossary:​o:​os|operating system]] and memory .
