This comes closest to what I think needs stating.  What you're trying to say is that there's no process (on the accessing computer or some other computer across a network) which handles and coordinates all the database access.

I was thinking about the word 'decentralised' but that seems to mean something that used to be central.  'uncentralised' is a word which just needs explaining.  And 'uncoordinated' doesn't mean the right thing in English.

One problem is that 'server' has too many meanings now.  SQLite is certainly 'serverless', but that doesn't say enough.  Does 'decentralised' mean anything useful to the sort of person who might need to read that description ?
