+      OpenShift offers multiple technical options by default (replicas, pod anti-affinities,
+      topology spread constraints). The applications needs to support this high availability.
+      Clusters can also be distributed across multiple fire zones (failure zones) within a region/location.
+      Multi-Cluster/Multi-Region distribution can be considered additionally, if required.
+
+      The decision of the most appropriate level needs to be done organizationally per application.
+      No rules are checked here, as no required level of high availability is stated in the requirement.
