Answer / yuvaevergreen

TD architecture
APPLN>>>PE>>>BYNET>>>AMPS>>>VDISKS
Parsing Engine can handle upto 120 sessions. dispatches the plan to bynet.
BYNET is a bidirectional network which dispatches the plan to amps, facilitates the communications between amps and PEs.
AMPS are the ones which take care of sorting the answers, locating the data on the vdisks and dispatching the answersets to BYNET. They work independently.one bynet>>>512 nodes.
VDISKS consists of actual data.one vdisk>>>119GB.
PE and AMPS are called virtual processors.
