HPE SimpliVity for Microsoft SQL Server “With HPE SimpliVity Hyperconverged Infrastructure, we have been able to simplify all aspects of assigning resources, policies, backups and replication tasks. We saw an immediate performance increase across the board from SQL applications to standard applications.” - Blake Soiu, IT Director, Interland / Jim Joseph Foundation Brigham Young University runs Microsoft SQL Server, industry-specific application (911 system, healthcare application, legal case management, CAD/CAM), and Life Sciences research applications on HPE SimpliVity. - Danny Yeo, IT Director, Brigham Young University

HPE SimpliVity for Microsoft SQL Server AlwaysOn Availability Groups Best Practices for three Availability Groups architectures: High Availability (Synchronous) Disaster Recovery (Asynchronous) High Availability with Disaster Recovery Accelerate failovers and minimize service disruptions for mission-critical applications Mitigate service disruptions at the database level in the event of disasters or outages Simplify failover and failback processes in multi-subnet environments Availability Group Listener Availability Group WSFC Cluster Datacenter1 Server AG Replication Cluster Heartbeat HPE SimpliVity Datacenter2 App Server SQL Server Instance VM Sync Async Network HPE SimpliVity Federation VM High Availability Expanding upon our SQL Server solution, we recently developed a reference architecture highlighting AlwaysOn Availability Groups in an HPE SimpliVity environment. The added flexibility of Availability Groups of both HPE SimpliVity OmniStack and SQL Server means an organization can leverage individual features of both HPE SimpliVity OmniStack and SQL Server to design a business continuity strategy that best aligns with the organization’s specific business requirements. This solution highlights Best Practices for three Availability Groups architectures, including: High Availability (Synchronous) Disaster Recovery (Asynchronous) High Availability with Disaster Recovery AlwaysOn Availaibility Groups enable customers to Accelerate failovers and minimize service disruptions for mission-critical applications. Customers are able to mitigate service disruptions at the database level in the event of disasters or outages Confidential – For Training Purposes Only
