decentralization is hard.
To put in different terms its like trying to control a plate of marbles with a single pencil.
you can only manipulate a small portion of of the marbles, and you hope that the commands you give them will propagate and not run out of control.
Nowadays its perfectly feasible to control 10,000 servers through one system running on two or three servers. with some work that could reasonably be pushed to half a million.
That'll basically take of 99.99% of all companies needs.

I've spent the last 3 years thinking about how to implement social networking in a distributed manner, and I'll just say I've figured it out and implemented it. http://platform.qbix.com/features/distributed http://platform.qbix.com/features/distributed http://www.faqs.org/patents/app/20120110469#b http://www.faqs.org/patents/app/20120110469#b
