Design an optimized high availability and disaster recovery solution

Question

You administer a SQL Server 2008 database solution. All data modifications are performed through stored procedures that use only the INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE statements. You are designing a backup strategy. You need to ensure that the following business requirements are met:

  • The backup strategy supports point-in-time recovery for failure at

any time of day.

  • The transaction log uses the least amount of disk space.

What should you do?

Options

  • AUse hourly database snapshots.
  • BUse the full-recovery model along with differential backups.
  • CUse the simple-recovery model along with differential backups.
  • DUse the full-recovery model along with transaction log backups.

Explanation

Full-recovery Model - Requires log backups. - No work is lost due to a lost or damaged data file. - Can recover to an arbitrary point in time (for example, prior to application or user error). Work loss exposure - Normally none. - Il the tail of the log is damaged, changes since the most recent log backup must be redone. Recover to point in time S3. - Can recover to a specific point in time, assuming that your backups are complete up to that
