ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Synchronous network

A synchronous network is like a group of people doing a dance together. They all move in time with the same beat and steps, so they stay in sync. In a synchronous network, all the computers and devices are connected and communicate with each other at the same time, like dancing to the same beat. This allows them to work together efficiently and quickly, without getting in each other's way. It's like everyone is following the same set of rules, so they can all work together smoothly. Just like in a dance, if one person gets out of step, it can slow down or disrupt the whole group. Synchronous networks help everyone stay on the same page, and make sure everything runs smoothly!
