Overcoming Connectivity Issues in Distributed Systems: Aerospace

Overcoming connectivity issues in distributed systems is crucial for maintaining the functionality of devices like satellites in orbit. To address this challenge, various strategies can be implemented at different stages of data transmission. Pre-transmission strategies include data caching, compression, priority scheduling, and checksums or hashes generation. During transmission, tools such as InfluxDB and Kafka can help manage data and mitigate connectivity issues. Configuration options like dynamic adjustment, forward error correction, edge computing, delay tolerant networking, optimized routing algorithms, lightweight protocols, and high-latency protocols can also be employed to improve the robustness of data transmission in distributed systems.
