Tech/Engineering - Computers: Systems, Networks | | Italian term or phrase: ambiente di alta disponibilità | Can't seem to find the right term for this - any offers. High availability environment does not sound just right
Creare ridondanza dei servizi di base presso V4. Realizzare un progetto di upgrade e consolidamento dei server in ambiente di alta disponibilità connesso con lo storage EMC2.

| | English translation:high-availability environment (or high availability environment) | Explanation:
This is a commonly used term for a system that is set up to stay online/available even in extreme circumstances.

The wikipedia article gives a good explanation of the technology used for boosting availability:
"HA clusters usually utilize all available techniques to make the individual systems and shared infrastructure as reliable as possible. These include:
Disk mirroring so that failure of internal disks does not result in system crashes
Redundant network connections so that single cable, switch, or network interface failures do not result in network outages
Redundant Storage area network or SAN data connections so that single cable, switch, or interface failures do not lead to loss of connectivity to the storage (this would violate the share-nothing architecture)
Redundant electrical power inputs on different circuits, usually both or all protected by Uninterruptible power supply units, and redundant power supply units, so that single power feed, cable, UPS, or power supply failures do not lead to loss of power to the system.
These features help minimize the chances that the clustering failover between systems will be required. In such a failover, the service provided is unavailable for at least a little while, so measures to avoid failover are preferred."
Don't worry that this uses "clusters" instead of "environment". It's the same thing, only "clusters" is for a more technical register. |
