Dependability

Dependability refers to the quality of being trustworthy and reliable. It encompasses several attributes, including: 1. **Reliability**: The ability of a system to perform its intended functions consistently over time without failure. In technical contexts, this often refers to how well systems can operate under specified conditions. 2. **Availability**: This aspect deals with the readiness of a system when needed. High availability means that a system is operational and accessible when required.
