Mission Critical application definition:
“Gartner defines “mission-critical” applications as business applications, excluding email, that would
bring your company to a stop if they were not running. Mission-critical applications are typically supported
and managed by a central IT staff. Examples of such applications are airline reservation systems and order
processing for a retail store chain. “
