Single points of failure

Single points of failure (SPOF) are points at which a system failure might occur in your data center, if the wrong configuration is set.

The number of SPOF increases as a system grows in size and complexity. Within the four walls of the data center, potential single points of failure include:

• Node
• Database Server
• SAN or Disk Subsystem
• Sterling™ Order Management System Software Components
• Server Registry
• Message Queues
• Networked File Systems
