All systems have failure modes; so, use multiple systems to do things that are important.
Are these 'points of failure' ? not single points of failure? I assume some of these have redundancy but could fail.
Yes, but is multiple single points of failure better than one?
Wouldn't that mean a single point of failure?
There's always a single point of failure.
beats the current system, where there is multiple single points of failures. :p
to also face a failure in the single point of failure - system?
Nope that sounds like the ramifications of having a single point of failure.
I am not familiar with this. What makes them less of a single point of failure?
A single point of failure is an advantage?
