Running at a 2N (or more) configuration 24/7 is a great way to light money on fire.
This can be mitigated though if you have say 3 datacenters and you want to be able to run with 1 down, because that divides the load.

Then you profit the whole day and afterwards you check the revenues you've not lost + the new users and revenues that came in with the circumstances + the support calls and the engineering emergency that were avoided... turns out all of that cover the yearly datacenter expenses by tenfold 8) YMMV.
