Daily Term: Redundancy

Redundancy

Redundancy involves duplicating critical components or data in a system to increase reliability and fault tolerance. For example, a database might replicate data across multiple servers so that if one fails, others can take over. Redundancy ensures high availability and resilience, commonly used in distributed systems and cloud infrastructure, but it increases resource usage and requires synchronization to maintain consistency across duplicates.
