A quota is a trade restriction imposed by the government that limits the amount or value of goods imported or exported into a country (Carbaugh, 2010, p. 151).

Question 1: does distributed file systems eliminate need for backup

Data backup is necessary because in distributed file systems data being shared may exist only in one computer and if lost, all other computers will not be able to access the same data (Girone, 2015). Distributed file system share data when needed by another computer, however, this does not provide for data redundancy. ...
