AlwaysOn - Finally, A usable 'mirror'!
Event Date: 02-08-2014 - Session time: 00:00:00 - Track: SQL DBA Foundations
Speaker: Jim Murphy
Title: AlwaysOn - Finally, A usable 'mirror'!
Abstract:
In the past, High Availability and Disaster Recovery (HADR) had many limitations. Clustering and Mirroring are great, but the mirror/secondary database is not very usable since it is not online. Finally, AlwaysOn solves this limitation by merging both multi-node Clustering and mirroring. AlwaysOn also allows the secondary database to remain ONLINE, so we can use it for reporting purposes without resorting to a Snapshot! Come see this lively session with extensive demos of setting up, configuring and testing AlwaysOn. We'll also test automatic fail-over using a real web app to see how well this feature works.
