In these databases, client transactions often span the different servers, as the transactions may need to read from various partitions.

| Title and Author of Paper Combining Systems and Databases: A Search Engine Retrospective. Eric A. Brewer. Summary Search engines manage data and respond to queries, which provides some similarities to databases.

This paper describes a search engine design that leverages the ideas and vocabulary of the database community.
