Fault tolerance refers to the ability of a computer program to continue to provide service in the event of system failures. Fault tolerant systems are able to quickly identify a point of failure and shift resources to a backup resource. Common points of system failure that must be addressed include computer processors, power supplies, motherboards, and network connections. The ultimate goal of a fault tolerant system is to prevent a complete system failure that could be caused by the outage of a single component.
