High Availability (HA) is a system design principle used in IT infrastructure to ensure applications, servers, and networks remain operational with minimal downtime. It is achieved through redundancy, failover mechanisms, and load balancing so that if one component fails, another takes over automatically. It's a core competency for systems administrators, DevOps engineers, and site reliability engineers responsible for meeting uptime service-level agreements.
