Still, it is better to avoid downtime than to recover from it, and one of the main ways to achieve that is through redundancy, preferably a shared-nothing approach. If I have a cool 5-node cluster and the whole thing goes down because the filesystem gets corrupted, I can restore from backup, but management is going to wonder why a 5-node cluster could not provide availability. So the question remains: how to eliminate the filesystem as the SPOF?

Then eliminate the shared filesystem and replicate data on application
level.

- MySQL has Galera
- Dovecot has dsync
