Implementing Robust Virtualized Environments for 24/7 Mission-Critical Systems

Infrastructure resilience is no longer a luxury in a digital environment where "five nines" (99.999% uptime) has moved from a premium goal to a baseline requirement. We have moved past the era of the "server in a closet," vulnerable to a single power supply failure.
