excerpt
To provide this level of availability, Motorola's carrier-grade hardware platforms are designed for networking, wireless and Internet applications that require 99.999% availability (5NINES), the equivalent of five minutes or less of downtime per year, both planned and unplanned. The company's new high-availability software strategy, also announced today, is a key part of the plan. Through the software strategy, Motorola will take its success in bringing Advanced High Availability Software for Linux(r) (HA Linux) to the market and transfer this know-how to other operating systems, specifically, Windows 2000(r), Wind River's VxWorks(r) AE RTOS and LynxOS(r). Access to standard HA-system platforms, based on rules and policies originally developed for fault-tolerant platforms, will help developers easily make their systems "HA Aware," while network architects will benefit from software standardization and re-use across platforms.
