See Failure domain and Computing

Fault tolerance

Fault tolerance is the ability of a system to maintain proper operation despite failures or faults in one or more of its components.

See Failure domain and Fault tolerance

IT infrastructure

Information technology infrastructure is defined broadly as a set of information technology (IT) components that are the foundation of an IT service; typically physical components (computer and networking hardware and facilities), but also various software and network components.

See Failure domain and IT infrastructure

Network switch

A network switch (also called switching hub, bridging hub, Ethernet switch, and, by the IEEE, MAC bridge) is networking hardware that connects devices on a computer network by using packet switching to receive and forward data to the destination device.

See Failure domain and Network switch

RAID

RAID ("redundant array of inexpensive disks" or "redundant array of independent disks") is a data storage virtualization technology that combines multiple physical disk drive components into one or more logical units for the purposes of data redundancy, performance improvement, or both.

See Failure domain and RAID

Router (computing)

A router is a computer and networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks, including internetworks such as the global Internet.

See Failure domain and Router (computing)
