This time the process failed and brought the parent process down as they are linked. Linking can also be done manually by calling `Process.link/1`. We recommend you to take a look at [the `Process` module](/docs/stable/elixir/Process.html) for other functionality provided by processes.

Process and links play an important role when building fault-tolerant systems. In Elixir applications, we often link our processes to supervisors which will detect when a process die and start a new process in its place. This is only possible because processes are isolated and don't share anything by default. And if processes are isolated, there is no way a failure in a process will crash or corrupt the state of another.

While other languages would require us to catch/handle exceptions, in Elixir we are actually fine with letting process fail because we expect supervisors to properly restart our systems. "Failing fast" is a common philosophy when writing Elixir software!
