Ensuring High Availability for SQL Server

How do you handle high availability (HA) requirements for critical applications such as Microsoft SQL Server? Does your SQL environment require a bandwidth-optimized, asynchronous, high-availability solution?

Those questions are the focus of this on-demand Webcast, featuring Dante Chavez, VP, Network & Telecommunications Servers for North Island Credit Union. Chavez outlines what his requirements were and how he went about choosing and implementing a high-availability solution for NICU's SQL Server environment.

Also featured is David Aschmann, Product Manager for CA XOsoft, who describes the HA improvements that Microsoft has made in SQL Server 2005 and identifies the areas where gaps still exist. In addition, Aschmann offers a walkthrough demonstration of CA XOsoft's WANSyncHA SQL, a fully automated, high availability solution for SQL Server 2000 and 2005 that provides:

• Asynchronous automatic failover and failback capabilities
• Automated disaster recovery testing and replica server validation features
• Built-in rewind technology for accelerated time to recovery with minimal data loss
