The enterprise needs to maintain information about the customers of each branch

The enterprise needs to maintain information about the customers of each branch, as well as administrative information about its offices. Your job is to design a data distribution plan in which each branch can maintain information in its local database for its customers but also access customer data from other branches without having to store that information in its local database. In addition, the headquarters of the enterprise can maintain administrative information about all the branches in its enterprise. Assume that your enterprise has two branches, one in Phoenix and one in Denver.
