| **Fault Tolerance** is the ability of a system to respond gracefully to an unexpected hardware or software failure. There are many levels of fault tolerance, the lowest being the ability to continue operation in the event of a power failure. Many fault-tolerant computer systems mirror all operations -- that is, every operation is performed on two or more duplicate systems, so if one fails the other can take over. | **Fault Tolerance** is the ability of a system to respond gracefully to an unexpected hardware or software failure.
