What is HA AND FT? WHAT IS CLONE AND TRMPLATE?

Question

Accepted Answer

HA and FT are high availability and fault tolerance technologies used in computing. Clone and template are methods of creating virtual machines.

HA ensures that a system is always available by using redundant components and failover mechanisms.
FT ensures that a system can continue to function even if a component fails by using real-time replication of data and processes.
Clone creates an exact copy of a virtual machine, including its configuration and data.
Template is a pre-configured virtual machine that can be used as a baseline for creating new virtual machines.
Examples of virtualization platforms that support these technologies include VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V.
