04 Reliability by design
Map failure domains →| Layer | Dependency evidence | Failure behaviour | Recovery proof |
|---|---|---|---|
| Identity | Accounts + credentials | Access preserved safely | Revocation rehearsed |
| Network | Route + name resolution | Bounded timeout | Alternate path tested |
| Data | State + consistency | No silent loss | Restore validated |
| Application | Service journey | Graceful degradation | Return reconciled |
