The idea is to write a book about building high availability systems. From the network level (WAN,LAN) up through the servers, their hardware, NAS/SAN, client access etc. Should include, webs servers, Database servers, file and print, load balancing and cluster technologies, and of course methods to recover from different types of failures on different systems. Is this something that people would want? A look at how to make X, Y, and Z on their network high availability. Taking a holistic approach as it were, not just looking at any one specific technology but instead creating a roadmap for the entire environment, defining what recovery, fault tolerance and high availability really are, then discussing how to design and implement for the business requirement? Any other thoughts as to what someone would like to see in a book like this or if it would even get bought?
