What is the key difference between fault tolerance and high availability?

Fault tolerance is less expensive than high availability

Fault tolerance is only for hardware, while high availability is only for software

High availability guarantees no data loss, while fault tolerance does not

Fault tolerance provides continuous operation with no downtime, while high availability minimizes downtime to a very short period

What is the primary purpose of replication as a fault tolerance mechanism?

To automatically switch to a standby system in case of failure

To compress data to save storage space

To maintain identical copies of data or services on multiple systems

To distribute network traffic evenly across multiple servers

What is link aggregation (e.g., LACP) used for in network fault tolerance?

To combine multiple physical network links into a single logical link for increased bandwidth and redundancy

To encrypt network traffic between switches

To segment a network into multiple virtual LANs

To prioritize network traffic based on quality of service (QoS) policies
