Abstract

In today´s mission critical computing environments, achieving a fault tolerant infrastructure is essential to smooth operation. Unfortunately, many users don´t completely grasp the full meaning of fault tolerance as a comprehensive solution with a defined architecture to maximize operating dependability. All too often, it is viewed as a collection of fault-mitigating products that can end up being more of a Band-Aid than a truly effective strategy for process improvement.
