Fault-Tolerant Computing

Kevin McGeough & David Russell, NonStop Enterprise Division, Hewlett Packard

In 1974, in Silicon Valley, California, two engineers from Hewlett-Packard started a computer company, called Tandem, which first developed computer systems incorporating fault-tolerance. Many organisations have since developed a variety of fault tolerant systems and high availability configurations. Most have come and gone, however the principles remain the same. Our speakers will present a wide-ranging review of fault tolerant systems over the years, outlining typical applications, and will highlight how history repeats itself in the latest HP Integrity NonStop servers.
