High Availability and Disaster recovery options for SQL Server.
 
There will be a brief presentation of what HA really means. Mark Krampits will discuss various options using Log Shipping, Mirroring, and MS Cluster Server. Mark will discuss the pros and the cons of each and highlight the new HA features that are coming with SQL 2012. There will be a demo of new HA features of SQL 2012, especially, Always On. It will be an extended version of what he briefly discussed last year.
