Answer» A homogenous database is one that uses the same DBMS at each NODE. Either each node can WORK independently or a central DBMS may coordinate database activities. A heterogeneous database is one that may have a different DBMS at each node. It may support some or all of the functionality of one logical database. It may support FULL Distributed DBMS functionality or PARTIAL Distributed DBMS functionality. A homogenous database is one that uses the same DBMS at each node.
