Muhammad Faraz Qaisrani from the 2nd Batch at Benazir Bhutto Shaheed University discusses types of distributed database management systems (DDBMS). There are two main types: homogeneous, where all data centers use the same software, and heterogeneous, where different data centers may use different database products. Homogeneous systems are easier to design and manage but can be difficult for organizations to implement uniformly. Heterogeneous systems allow integration of existing databases but require translations between different hardware and software.
