High Availability and Disaster Recovery (HADR) play a vital role in maintaining the integrity of data, reducing downtime, and safeguarding against data loss in enterprise database systems. AWS offers a range of HADR options for SQL Server, which leverage the powerful capabilities of SQL Server along with the scalability and flexibility of AWS. In this article, we will guide you through the process of configuring HADR for SQL Server on AWS, providing practical code examples for setting up and recovering a SQL Server database.
