Contents:
Frontmatter -- Reliability Basics. Reliability and Availability Concepts -- System Basics -- What can go Wrong -- Reliability Concepts. Failure Containment and Redundancy -- Robust Design Principles -- Error Detection -- Analyzing and Modeling Reliability and Robustness -- Design for Reliability. Reliability Requirements -- Reliability Analysis -- Reliability Budgeting and Modeling -- Robustness and Stability Testing -- Closing the Loop -- Design for Reliability Case Study -- Conclusion -- Appendix: Assessing Design for Reliability Diligence -- Abbreviations -- References -- Photo Credits -- About the Author -- Index.
Summary: "System reliability, availability and robustness are often not well understood by system architects, engineers and developers. They often don't understand what drives customer's availability expectations, how to frame verifiable availability/robustness requirements, how to manage and budget availability/robustness, how to methodically architect and design systems that meet robustness requirements, and so on. The book takes a very pragmatic approach of framing reliability and robustness as a functional aspect of a system so that architects, designers, developers and testers can address it as a concrete, functional attribute of a system, rather than an abstract, non-functional notion"--Provided by publisher.
