As the ability of arbitrary querying is not as important as the [[availability]], designers of distributed data stores have increased the latter at an expense of consistency. But the high-speed read/write access results in reduced consistency, as it is not possible to haveguarantee both [[Consistency (database systems)|consistency]], availability, and partition tolerance of the network, as it has been provenstated by the [[CAP theorem]].
