SQL Server High Availability Planning

SQL Server High Availability/Disaster Recovery

Problems inevitably happen. Power goes out. Corruptions occur. Hardware fails.

With careful planning and preparation, you can cope with almost every conceivable problem, by implementing a high-availability strategy designed to provide business continuity. Sometimes, however, a problem occurs that isn’t mitigated and then you need to recover within your downtime and data loss service level agreements, using your disaster-recovery strategy.

This is where we can help you!

We have extensive experience creating and implementing high-availability and disaster-recovery strategies, involving replication, failover clustering, log shipping, database mirroring, backups, availability groups, virtualization, and more.
