             Summary: Improve doc terminology that uses distributed system
                 Key: GEODE-5351
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-5351
             Project: Geode
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: docs
            Reporter: Karen Smoler Miller


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.
