You May Have More Downtime Risk Than You Think
The Uptime Institute's report reveals that downtime incidents are increasing and their consequences are becoming more severe. This contradicts the common perception of cloud providers offering 99.99% uptime guarantees. Third-party service providers, including colocation, hosting, or cloud, contribute to a significant portion of downtime. To prevent downtime, Uptime suggests using a multi-home strategy called "Distributed Resiliency." DataStax Enterprise (DSE) is the only masterless architecture available from any mainstream database vendor today, offering true zero downtime and deployment freedom across multiple on-premise data centers, cloud providers, or hybrid clouds.
