A Fault Recovery Capability is a system capability that enables a computing system to detect, respond to, and recover from system faults while maintaining operational continuity and data integrity.
- AKA: Recovery Capability, Failure Recovery Ability, Resilience Capability.
- Context:
- It can typically detect System Faults through monitoring mechanisms.
- It can typically initiate Recovery Procedures via automated responses.
- It can typically restore System State from backup sources.
- It can typically maintain Service Availability during recovery process.
- It can typically ensure Data Consistency through integrity verification.
- ...
- It can often implement Graceful Degradation for partial failures.
- It can often support Failover Mechanisms for redundancy activation.
- It can often provide Recovery Time Objectives for downtime minimization.
- It can often enable Root Cause Analysis for fault prevention.
- ...
- It can range from being a Manual Fault Recovery Capability to being an Automated Fault Recovery Capability, depending on its recovery automation level.
- It can range from being a Basic Fault Recovery Capability to being a Comprehensive Fault Recovery Capability, depending on its recovery scope.
- ...
- It can utilize Fault Tolerant Systems for resilience architecture.
- It can implement Checkpoint-Restart Systems for state recovery.
- It can employ Redundancy Patterns for failure mitigation.
- ...
- Example(s):
- System-Specific Fault Recoverys, such as:
- Infrastructure Fault Recoverys, such as:
- Domain Fault Recoverys, such as:
- ...
- Counter-Example(s):
- Fault Prevention, which avoids rather than recovers from system faults.
- Performance Optimization, which improves rather than restores system operation.
- Capacity Planning, which prevents rather than handles resource exhaustion.
