Question

You administer a SQL Server 2008 infrastructure. The infrastructure contains SQL Server 2008 servers across four sites. All sites are connected via a WAN link. All sites use the same database application. Your company has the following business requirements:

  • All sites maintain data related to their site.
  • Each site has access to data related to other sites.
  • In the event of any site failure, database activity is redirected to

another site. You need to implement a replication topology that meets the business requirements. Which solution should you implement?

Options

  • ASnapshot replication
  • BHTTP Merge replication
  • CPeer-to-Peer replication
  • DTransactional replication that uses updating subscriptions

Explanation

Peer-to-peer replication provides a scale-out and high-availability solution by maintaining copies of data across multiple server instances, also referred to asnodes. Built on the foundation of transactional replication, peer-to-peer replication propagates transactionally consistent changes in near real-time. This enables applications that require scale-out of read operations to distribute the reads from clients across multiple nodes. Because data is maintained across the nodes in near real-time, peer-to-peer replication provides data redundancy, which increases the availability
