Fault tolerant computing describes systems designed to continue operating correctly despite the failure of one or more of their components. This is achieved through redundancy, error detection, and recovery mechanisms, ensuring uninterrupted service and data integrity. In decentralized networks, it is essential for maintaining uptime and preventing data corruption even if individual nodes malfunction or are compromised. This capability is vital for reliable digital infrastructure.
Context
Fault tolerant computing principles are fundamental to the reliability and security of blockchain networks and distributed ledger technology. As digital assets become more integral to global finance, the demand for highly fault-tolerant underlying systems grows. Developers continually refine protocols to enhance their ability to withstand various failures, from network outages to malicious attacks, thereby securing the integrity of transactions and data.
