Policy: AWS > Well-Architected Tool > AWS Well-Architected Framework > Reliability > REL 04. How do you design interactions in a distributed system to prevent failures? > Identify which kind of distributed system is required

Hard real-time distributed systems require responses to be given synchronously and rapidly, while soft real-time systems have a more generous time window of minutes or more for response. Offline systems handle responses through batch or asynchronous processing. Hard real-time distributed systems have the most stringent reliability requirements.

See Identify which kind of distributed system is required for more information.
