What is H/A?

H/A stands for “High Availability,” which is a fancy way of saying that something (like a website or service) is set up to always be available without any interruptions. Imagine you have a favorite online game or a website you visit every day. You’d want it to always be up and running whenever you want to use it, right? That’s what high availability helps with.

Imagine two bridges going to an island. If one bridge closes for repairs, you can still use the other one to get to the island. High availability is like having those two bridges; if something goes wrong with one part of a service, there’s a backup ready to take over so you don’t even notice there was a problem.

People who create websites or services use special technology to make sure that even if one part stops working, there are other parts that can continue without any break. This way, everyone can keep playing games, watching videos, or getting their work done without any trouble.
