Availability
There is significant demand for multi-user databases to achieve High Availability (HA) for 24/7 operation. DBMSs have been developed to minimise or eliminate any planned downtime by use of techniques such as online backups, online storage maintenance and other zero-maintenance design features. Methods have evolved so availability can be maintained in the event of failure of components of the database system.
