Primes¶
- Redundancy
- A global payment service achieves 99.99% annual availability (approximately 52 minutes of downtime per year) through layered redundancy

Domain-specific¶
- CAP Theorem (and variants)
- NoSQL and distributed databases — the canonical home: DynamoDB, Cassandra, Couchbase, Riak, and MongoDB situating themselves on the CAP/PACELC frontier, their consistency-availability configurations direct instantiations of the trade. Replicated SQL stores — Spanner, CockroachDB, TiDB, and FoundationDB sitting on the PC/EC side and accepting the latency cost

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 2 citations: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Was it audited? Yes. A second, independent pass read the citation against the article text and recorded a verdict.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
