Successfully Implement SQL Server Always On Availability Groups with Failover Clustered Instances
This is a walk-through of building a SQL Server Always on Availability Group on top of a Failover Clustered Instance to achieve both local high availability and remote disaster recovery.
This is a complex architecture. Make sure you include everyone involved in designing, implementing, and managing it during the planning phase.
And while this video is less than an hour long, nobody builds this kind or architecture in less than an hour. Proper planning and implementation takes days and involves engineers with intermediate-level skills.
NOTE: I no longer recommend this architecture due to the complexity of the implementation. However, there are so many implementations like this in customer environments that were not done properly.
