That first link is pretty interesting. To take a quote from the bottom of it:
"If a website ... responded with an error, it was considered down. " I wondered how they recognized errors since most sites return 200 status codes with their error messages. "uptime" can be a tricky phrase. I have seen glaring errors and broken links on Yahoo! before, but the site was responding. So was that "down" time or "up" time. ~Brad -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: High-Availability Requirements From: Dave Watts <[email protected]> Date: Fri, February 20, 2009 11:28 am To: cf-talk <[email protected]> > I guess it depends on your definition of high-availability.
