1 "Failover" is a technical capability that provides redundancy for end users. For example, if a user's primary server goes down for any reason, then those users technically will auto-connect (or spill over) seamlessly to a secondary server that provides them access to their data.

2 "Load Balancing" is a technical capability that provides ongoing high performance even with increased workload (coming from higher numbers of concurrent users for example). The way this is accomplished is by having 2 or more servers in a cluster group whereby the full load is offset & balanced by the other server(s) in the group.)
