## Introduction

This technical note describes a foundational architectural pattern for designing large distributed systems (sometimes called
industrial internet of things - IIoT) with the [Data Distribution Service (DDS)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Distribution_Service)
communication standard. The key idea of 'Layered Databus Architecture' advocated by
industrial internet of things - IIoT). The key idea of 'Layered Databus Architecture' advocated by
[RTI](https://www.rti.com/blog/2017/01/31/2nd-version-of-the-industrial-internet-reference-architecture-is-out-with-layered-databus)
is described, followed by five specific ways to improve reliability of systems that use such an architecture. The
contents of this technical note are derived from my notes from a webinar organised by RTI.

- Applications and devices have no knowledge of each other. They function by publishing and subscribing data over
'topics' that are well known throughout the system.
- Components are loosely coupled and the databus (underlying DDS protocol) automatically discovers them during runtime.
- Components are loosely coupled and the databus automatically discovers them during runtime.

Mature communication standards such as [DDS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Distribution_Service) as well as newly evolving new frameworks such as [Zenoh](https://zenoh.io/) support these characteristics.
