1. A method for supporting resilient execution of computer programs comprising the steps of:

  • providing a resilient store wherein information in the resilient store can be accessed in the event of a failure;

    periodically checkpointing application state in the resilient store;

    providing a resilient executor which comprises software which executes applications by catching failures;

    using the resilient executor to execute at least one application; and

    in response to the resilient executor detecting a failure, restoring application state information from a checkpoint in the resilient store, the resilient executor resuming execution of the at least one application.
