Reliability pillar
The reliability pillar includes the ability of a system to recover from infrastructure or service disruptions, dynamically acquire computing resources to meet demand, and mitigate disruptions such as misconfigurations or transient network issues.
There are three best practice areas for reliability in the cloud:
To achieve reliability, a system must have a well-planned foundation and monitoring in place, with mechanisms for handling changes in demand, requirements, or potentially defending an unauthorized denial of service attack. The system should be designed to detect failure and, ideally, automatically heal itself.
