Ashared-nothing architecture(SN) is adistributed computingarchitecturein which each update request is satisfied by a single node (processor/memory/storage unit) in acomputer cluster. The intent is to eliminate contention among nodes. Nodes do not share (independently access) the same memory or storage.
