This is mostly related with databases applications :)

Single instance means:
If database app uses database and one node would fail then there is short outage because database is initialized on another node. Changes are executed only on active node with database

Multiple instance means:
If database app uses database and one node would fail then there is no outage because database is initialized on both nodes. Changes are executed on each database instance concurrently. So, resource is moved to another node where database contains the same data.

Regards,
Krzysztof
