Hmmm, I disagree.

First, I think Replication (and Partitioning, for that matter) imply
distribution (as does WAN).  Given Geode is a IMDG, the keyword being
"grid", then it is obvious distribution occurs in the scale-out
(shared-nothing) architecture to ensure availability and
reliability/resiliency to failure.

Also, I think "Replication" has a very specific meaning here.  You both
distribute and replicate the data.  But, how you distribute and replicate
the data depends on your "data management policy" which has implications
for consistency and latency (REPLICATE everything or PARTITION (shard) the
data for both fast reads and writes).

Second, WAN is much more than Replication.  It is a topology used in
Active-Active or DR architectures, or used perhaps for sending a select
subset, "filtered" (possibly transformed), information, based on locality,
and so on.  To refer to WAN as just Replication would do it injustice IMO.

There are 3 main topologies: P2P, Client/Server and WAN. All 3 deal with
distribution (and to varying degrees, replication) of data, which I feel is
important not to loose site of.
