Abstract :
This paper presents the design and prototype implementation of a reactive system that facilitates the fault detection and fault tolerance of a loosely integrated heterogeneous database system. The fault detection mechanism uses sensors to monitor individual databases and system objects and to detect database or system component failures. The fault tolerance mechanism uses actuators to react to these failures
