Redundancy is when you have the same data in multiple locations.

Some redundancy is good, while too much is bad.

If two departments are using the exact same data, then this redundancy is bad. It is utilizing excess resources.

Redundancy, can be used as a failsafe. Having a backup helps incase of data corruption.

The key is too find the right balance of redundancy within a database.
