A Distributed system simulator is a software tool used to mimic the behavior of a real-world distributed system[1]. A Distributed system simulator allows developers and engineers to test and evaluate their systems without deploying them in a real-world environment, facilitating testing, development, and debugging[2].

Distributed system simulators are used to test Distributed systems without risking data loss[1]. They are also used to replicate conditions used for debugging.[3]
