> The Geode docs appear to use the term "distributed system" in a specialized way. Readers would rarely discover that the doc use of "distributed system" is something other than a more standard definition (from Wikipedia):
> {quote}A distributed system is a system whose components are located on different networked computers, which then communicate and coordinate their actions by passing messages to each other.{quote}
> Under this more standard definition, Geode WAN-connected clusters are still a single distributed system.
> The task at hand is to attempt to find and revise all doc prose that refers to a distributed system such that it uses standard terminology.
