I am more interested in knowing about the timelines in Milli Seconds. I have
worked on an Back Up Product Which is based on similar model on the Web
Side which Had about 100 MS requirements. Though I must say If a User A
starts a process of back up and server 10 is checked for then it remains during
the entire process with server 10, also there were requirements that when a
user is created it is allocated a server, you would find atleast
1000's of servers and
on operation needs we generally add 3 - 4 servers every day., It could
last hours if
the back up is huge, but the thing was it was done on the web. Though
It might take
hours It still sends across the updates on the Back up Process to the
user, these were
in millisecond time lines.

It could still be having fail over if we use a docker container for
example or isn't
it so.

Yes this is some thing I would look for.

Are there any other Low Level Latency Models like Actor Model illustrated. Also
could you please let me know whether Model Means a Design Pattern or Multiple
Design Patterns.
