Peer-to-peer

A peer-to-peer network is a type of decentralized and distributed network architecture in which individual nodes in the network act as both suppliers and consumers of resources, in contrast to centralized client–server model where client nodes request access to resources provided by central servers.

In a peer-to-peer network, tasks are shared amongst multiple interconnected peers who each make a portion of their resources directly available to other network participants, without the need for centralized coordination by servers.
