From our authors textbook, in Chapter 6:   A ‘classic’ architecture:    ______________________________ computing is defined as a system consisting of software components spread over different computers but running as a single entity. A __________________ system can be an arrangement of different configurations, such as mainframes, computers, workstations, endpoint devices and minicomputers.  Organizations have turned to these systems to handle the data generation explosion and increased application performance needs.   This is especially true because the process of adding hardware to a _________________________ system is simpler than upgrading and replacing an entire centralized system made up of powerful servers.   Same answer for all the blanks.
