Fill in: 'We should ___ our systems against unexpected load.'

We 'harden systems' — the standard security/resilience collocation. 'Toughen', 'strengthen' and 'stiffen' are physical and not idiomatic for systems.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'To survive outages we ___ redundancy into the design.'
-
-
-
-
We 'build redundancy' — the standard collocation for engineering it in. 'Make', 'put' and 'set' don't collocate naturally with redundancy.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'A resilient service can ___ failure without collapsing.'
-
-
-

We 'absorb failure' — to handle it without breaking. 'Soak', 'eat' and 'take' are informal and not the standard resilience verb.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'When a node dies the cluster should ___ gracefully.'
-

5 / 5
Fill in: 'We regularly ___ failure modes with chaos experiments.'
-
-
-
-
We 'test failure modes' — the standard collocation. 'Try', 'check' and 'prove' are weaker and don't pair idiomatically with failure modes.
