Re: Re[2]: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Clustering solution
thank you all for your help specially you sandy we had major problems with sqlserver, and chosed to move away to hyperfile C/S (Which is almost free) and are very satisfied 3500 for double take seems ok, i will try to add it on 07 budget Is it easy to install ? and do you get free support ? do they have good support ? - Original Message - From: Sanford Whiteman [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Sanford Whiteman declude.junkmail@declude.com Sent: Monday, November 13, 2006 12:26 AM Subject: Re[2]: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Clustering solution Seriously, what's low? ...I ask because clustering's ROI is kind of a hard target.

RE: Re[2]: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: Clustering solution
If using SQL Server 2005, the new database mirroring (aka real-time log shipping) is an excellent solution if you would rather put your $$$ into SQL Server licenses (enterprise edition required) and hardware instead of a 3rd party app. An advantage of using Microsoft Database Mirroring is that you can remain on a 100% Microsoft supported solution. Assuming a clustered/mission-critical installation would want to insure they have access to PSS (Microsoft product support) for any critical situations, this could be a decisive factor over choosing a 3rd party generic clustering or C/SFS (clustered/storage file system) solution. I'd be curious to hear if Sandy or anyone has compared db mirroring to double-take and other solutions that made sense before this feature was available but may be less desirable now. Robert E.
