In this video we introduce one the new features available within MS SQL Server called Always ON. Like its name suggests Microsoft is pushing this technology as the way to achieve 99.999% uptime and achieve much more scalable databases. These two features have been lacking in the Microsoft database stack for many years now while other databases namely Oracle RAC have been providing similar capabilities for some years now. The Always on feature in MS SQL server is meant to provide instance and database level failover as well as provide the ability to off load non critical business process and maintenance activities to other replicas. The video explain the fundamentals of Always On and how it provides advantages over the previous options available namely Clustering, Mirroring and replication.
