Correct. In the infrastructure/service HA field, we already have that,
as vendors (with very few exceptions) have settled on
Corosync/Pacemaker for service availability, HAproxy for load
balancing, and MySQL/Galera for database replication, for example. It
would be great if we could see this kind of convergent evolution for
guest HA as well.
