Best answer

The use of diverse technologies provides some protection against common vulnerabilities in different elements of the distributed system. Availability is enhanced by distributing assets so that attacks on one element do not disable the entire system. If diverse technologies are used, it reduces the chances that an attack on all elements of the system will be successful.
