In parallel database processing one of the standard classifications of architecture is referred to as shared everything (SE).Which of the statements below is true of the SE architecture?
A) In the SE architecture, each processor has its private memory, but disks are shared among all processors.
B) In the SE architecture, each processor has its own memory and disks.
C) In the SE approach, memory and disks are shared among a collection of processors.
D) None of the above

In the SE approach, memory and disks are shared among a collection of processors. This means that all processors have access to the same set of disks, and the memory is also shared among all processors to facilitate parallel processing. This approach allows for better utilization of resources and faster performance, but can also lead to potential bottlenecks and contention for shared resources. Option A and B are incorrect because they both suggest that either disks or memory are private to each processor, which is not the case in SE architecture.
