Abstract
This chapter ilLuístrates how the paradigms discussed in the previous chapter can be applied and combined to achieve fault tolerance in an application-oriented way. The chapter starts by introducing classes of fault-tolerant systems that make different assumptions about the system properties, from arbitrary to crash and from asynchronous to synchronous. Then, it discusses strategies for the several approaches to building a fault-tolerant architecture. The main models for building fault-tolerant systems are then presented: remote operations, event services and transactions.
