Hi All,
i am in a slight confusion of implementing a DR solution for one of my banking client. They have a citrix application which depends on a sql server. they cannot have a down time more than 15 mins for that application...They want the DR database to come up in less than 15 mins and i am in a slight confusion which DR solution to go with...
I had ruled out Clustering as the client is not willing to bear the cost of it. I also ruled out database mirroring as we failed to get the required performance benchmark with synchronous mirroring with RTT of 167 ms
I am in confusion whether to go with log shipping or replication. if i am going with replication which should i go for.
Could anybody please help me to get a better solution ?
My environment is Windows 2003+ SQL 2005 Standard edition
Regards
