Vmware Fault Tolerance (CloudMonk.io)

VMware Fault Tolerance

Introduced by VMware, VMware Fault Tolerance (FT) is a feature designed to provide continuous availability for virtual machines (VMs) by creating a duplicate instance of a VM on another host in the vSphere environment. This technology ensures that if the primary VM fails, the secondary VM seamlessly takes over without any interruption or data loss, thus eliminating single points of failure. VMware FT employs synchronous replication of VM execution states between the primary and secondary VMs, maintaining identical copies of memory, CPU, and device states in real-time. It enhances the resilience of critical applications by offering continuous protection against hardware failures.
