Its far less likely for a piece of dedicated hardware to fail than an actual
computer.
There are useful things like "heartbeat" which can transparently fail over from one machine to the next. They even take the IP address of the failed machine. A professional setup would have redundancy built in that way. I have run extremely busy load balancers that way and in the failover case everything is back to normal within seconds.
