You are working on a mission-critical COBOL application that must continue running even in the presence of non-fatal errors. Which error recovery strategy should you implement to achieve this?
- Graceful degradation
- Process termination
- Use of the PERFORM THRU statement
- Use of the STOP RUN statement
Graceful degradation is an error recovery strategy in COBOL where the application continues to run even in the presence of non-fatal errors. It involves handling errors in a way that allows the program to provide partial functionality while ensuring overall stability.
