Introduction
The next version of SQL Server, SQL Server 2012 (formerly code-named Denali) will be generally available in the first half of 2012 and is designed to enable greater uptime with more capable disaster recovery capability, easier business intelligence (BI) and data analysis, and more rapid development, deployment, and management of database applications. With these and other updates available in SQL Server 2012, the product should provide a compelling upgrade from earlier versions, especially for customers who have not upgraded since SQL Server 2005.
Delivering Enterprise Availability and Reliability
SQL Server 2012 provides a new infrastructure for high availability and disaster recovery of database servers, called AlwaysOn. Organizations can take advantage of these improvements for their own solutions in order to meet uptime and compliance objectives.
Single System for High Availability and Disaster Recovery
AlwaysOn provides replication of data between primary to secondary servers and failover between servers to aid both high availability and disaster recovery.
