What is Resilience?

Resilience, in a technological context, refers to a system's ability to withstand and recover from disruptions, failures, or attacks while maintaining an acceptable level of functionality and performance. It encompasses strategies and technologies that ensure business continuity, data protection, and minimal downtime in the face of adversity, such as hardware failures, software bugs, network outages, security breaches, or natural disasters. Common approaches to achieving resilience include redundancy, fault tolerance, disaster recovery planning, and adaptive resource allocation.
