What is Always On Availability Group
Recommended HA for database availability
Best features of Mirroring
Non Shared Storage
Fast Failover
Automatic Page Repair
Support for High Latency Networks
Plus new features
Failover Group of databases
Multiple secondary replicas
Readable secondary replicas
Virtual names for fast failover
More flexible failover policy
Integration with traditional Failover Clustering
AlwaysOn Availability Groups
AlwaysOn Availability Groups is a new feature that
provides availability for application database(s).
• Provides protection from planned and unplanned
downtime
>Flexible
 Multi-database failover
 Multiple secondaries
 Total of 4 secondaries
 2 synchronous secondaries
 1 automatic failover pair
 Synchronous and
asynchronous
data movement
 Built in compression and
encryption
 Automatic and manual

 Automatic Page Repair

Case Study – Dell DVD Store Enterprises
Need to accept 24 x 7 transactions
For High Availability
Zero down time and data loss (automatic)
SLA to cover storage failure
“I see web site unavailable and you are fired”
“Reporting”
Near real time. No more than 1 minute behind
With minimal impact on live transactions
Disaster Recovery
Have second data centre. No more than 30 mins down time and 5
minutes data loss
Upgrade
Any upgrade needs to be with no down time or data loss

Installation
Always On relies on WSFC
Always On is NOT a clustered install of SQL
Does not need Shared Disk
Windows 2008 Server+ EE needed
Need to Enable HadrService
Via configuration manager
Or via PowerShell
Some Patches and QFE Needed
KB 976097
KB 2494036
Migrating to Always On / SQL-Server
2012
Any normal migration is possible:
Backup / Restore
Attach / Detach
Mirroring
Log Shipping
Replication
Might need some post migration tasks
Compatibility
Use of new features such as Containment
Quorum Changes
Required for automatic failover
Built in feature of WSFC
Replaces the concept of “witness” to avoid split brain
Two recommended Steps
1. Select nodes to vote
2. Select the Quorum Type
If Odd number use “Node Majority”
If even number use “Node Majority plus File Share Witness”
Requires QFE KB KB 2494036 to enable Voting
May need to adjust quorum after failover outside automatic target
Secondary Replica Features

DB1 Data
Secondary read is behind primary
Log is first hardened and then applied
Redo thread is asynchronous and runs in the background
Latency (typically seconds) can be larger for log intensive operations like bulk
import or index create/rebuild
Sync Replica minimizes latency due to network issues
