Learning From Failed Strategies
Success is transient, and sustained superior performance can be claimed by just a few companies. Strategy deals with achieving sustained superior performance with an integrated approach which cuts across functional domains and looks at the organization in a holistic sense. The proposition therefore is: what can one learn from the...

Subtleties in Tolerating Correlated Failures in Wide-Area Storage Systems
High availability is widely accepted as an explicit requirement for distributed storage systems. Tolerating correlated failures is a key issue in achieving high availability in today's wide-area environments. This paper systematically revisits previously proposed techniques for addressing correlated failures. Using several real-world failure traces, the paper qualitatively answer four important...

Storage MultiPathing Choices in HP-UX Serviceguard Environments
Serviceguard protects users and applications from a variety of failures (e. g. software, system, and network failure to name a few) by forming a cluster of multiple nodes and providing sufficient redundancy to remove single points of failure from the configuration. This paper gives an overview of what multi-pathing solutions...

Use one simple question to help get the project back on track
Have you ever listened to people talk about how, when, and why they failed? Or, for that matter, listened to your own stories about how circumstances and events conspired to create a "perfect storm" in which failure simply could not be avoided? These things, we say, just happen...

MTBF Calculator (exe)
Mean time between failures (MTBF) is the mean (average) time between failures of a system, the reciprocal of the failure rate in the special case when the failure rate is constant. Calculations of MTBF assume that a system is "renewed", i.e. fixed, after each failure, and then returned to service...

Mean Time Between Failure: Explanation and Standards
"Mean time between failure" is a reliability term used loosely throughout many industries and has become widely abused in some. Over the years the original meaning of this term has been altered which has led to confusion and cynicism. MTBF is largely based on assumptions and definition of failure and...

A Study of End-to-End Web Access Failures
This paper presents a study of end-to-end web access failures in the Internet. Part of the characterization of failures is based on directly observable end-to-end information. The paper also presents novel analyses that reveal aspects of end-to-end failures that would be hard to discern otherwise. First, it combines end-to-end failure...

Diagnosis of TCP Overlay Connection Failures Using Bayesian Networks
When failures occur in Internet overlay connections today, it is difficult for users to determine the root cause of failure. An overlay connection may require TCP connections between a series of overlay nodes to succeed, but accurately determining which of these connections has failed is difficult for users without access...
