SQL Server Availability Groups – Course Overview:
Achieving High Availability with previous versions of SQL Server was always complex: you had Clustering, Database Mirroring, Log Shipping, and Replication. Beginning with SQL Server 2012 Microsoft changed everything and introduced a new High Availability technology called Availability Groups. During this Live Training you will learn how to install, configure, and manage fault-tolerant installations of SQL Server in combination with Availability Groups.
