In a world where dependent services and platforms are not 100% available, architects must embrace that given enough time and pressure, all things will fail. This session, delivered by Mark Simms, will explore how to design for failure, understanding the impact and design choices for distributed services. This session will cover failure at node, service, and regional levels.

Episode 8 - Design for Availability

The mission of the FailSafe Initiative is to articulate recommendations and approaches for delivering resilient and scalable cloud architectures. FailSafe delivers general guidance on building resilient and scalable cloud architectures, guidance for implementing those architectures on Microsoft technologies generally, and scenario specific architectures that implement those architectures in context.  Developed by Microsoft Services and the Azure Customer Advisory Team, this series provides both platform agnostic concepts and patterns as well as Windows Azure specific implementation guidance.
