Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing or networking is a distributed application architecture that partitions tasks or work loads between peers. Peers are equally privileged, equipotent participants in the application. They are said to form a peer-to-peer network of nodes.
Peers make a portion of their resources, such as processing power, disk storage or network bandwidth, directly available to other network participants, without the need for central coordination by servers or stable hosts. Peers are both suppliers and consumers of resources, in contrast to the traditional client-server model in which the consumption and supply of resources is divided. Emerging collaborative P2P systems are going beyond the era of peers doing similar things while sharing resources, and are looking for diverse peers that can bring in unique resources and capabilities to a virtual community thereby empowering it to engage in greater tasks beyond those that can be accomplished by individual peers, yet that are beneficial to all the peers.

Peer to Peer and Client Server
With Peer to Peer lending, there are some risks they are not telling you. First, there is the liquidity issue where your money is essentially trapped in a loan for 3-5 years. The current aggregated default rate is variable and is dependent on the well being of the economy which could fluctuate. The returns are not guaranteed and the default rate could spike resulting in a loss rather than the paltry 6-9 percent of advertised gains. Second, the borrower is not ultimately responsible to pay you back but rather pay the intermediate company. This create some pretty peculiar situations if the company becomes insolvent.
This video explains the basic algorithms used in implementing a P2P network. The theory covered here is based on the popular P2P network algorithsm Chord, Kademlia and Tapestry. For more details, see my P2P tutorial: http://tutorials.jenkov.com/p2p/index.html
What is a peer to peer system? The distinction between clients and servers is useful and common in many internet interactions. But the client-server model creates problems, particularly given the importance of the servers themselves. If the servers go down, clients cannot obtain service. As a result, other systems are built using what is called a peer to peermodel. In a peer-to-peer (P2P) system, all participants act as both clients and servers, increasing the resiliency of the system.

For Honor is an interesting idea, unfortunately the Peer to Peer architecture is a big letdown, resulting in quits without penalty, lag exploit cheaters, DOS attacks, being unable to play with friends, losing experience or just stuttering. Ubisoft stays quiet about it and seems to have no plan to change anything right now. ------- Commentary ------- Battle(non)sense https://youtu.be/tAU5bIalbnc CModder https://youtu.be/ex89-JelUJE El Fuego Rojo https://youtu.be/4ZU8S9eHs90 HouseholdHacker https://youtu.be/5gE-ihY_EG0 My Name Is Simon https://youtu.be/PExIbXYVHYo VictoryFist Spooner https://youtu.be/6v0Kbb5Wy9U Vivid Naz https://youtu.be/46BPEKxLSNA ------- Gameplay ------- 2Bitification https://youtu.be/8LkZGHjlQQs Ben Phou https://youtu.be/SU5O7WdtJJA Boboltec https://youtu.be/rJ07Y9WDK...
