Mirroring Mirroring refers to the process of duplicating or replicating data, files, or content from one source to another in real-time or near real-time. In the context of computer networks and data storage systems, mirroring is commonly used to create redundant copies of critical data to ensure data availability, fault tolerance, and disaster recovery.
Mirroring can be implemented at various levels, including disk mirroring (RAID 1) for data redundancy and fault tolerance, server mirroring for high availability and load balancing, and network mirroring for traffic monitoring and analysis. Mirroring techniques involve continuous synchronization of data between the source and destination to maintain consistency and integrity across mirrored copies. |
