FSP Readies a Redundant PSU for Standard ATX Desktops
Fortron's channel brand FSP is ready with a unique new redundant power supply for standard ATX desktops. The new Twins Series PSU is an ATX-size box that encloses two hot-swappable 500W server-grade PSUs, with internal circuitry that maintains redundancy. The PSU further interfaces with your OS, giving you control over redundancy, monitoring, and programmable alerts. The PSU is ideal for home-servers and workstations with <500W power draw. Each of the two included subunits features 40 mm server-grade fans. FSP plans to reveal more information at its 2016 Computex exhibit.

This seems like a product for a standard atx desktop or workstation. Mission critical either of those aren't.
Or its for cheap as cheap can be companies who think they don't need to pay for server hardware to get server performance and reliability

something like that.
They've been using mostly regular computers with some modifications for years, however they have so many that there is no issue if one fails. They don't have mainframe or super computers.
