Hi Folks, Need some help on SQL Server database. I have a situation on a busy system (500 transactions/second) where we have two needs?

-Big need is for disaster recovery, if server/db go down we need to port things over to second automatically.

-Little need is for data availability on a secondary server for reporting needs. Could be delayed a bit

Need input on the following, as in what will work for the two needs above.

-Availability Group

-DB Mirroring

-Replication

-Log shipping

Here is the setup

Windows server 2012 R2 standard

Microsoft SQL Server 2014 standard

Ty so much in advance

    Not a good choice. You would be far better off using a local web based system using the Apache web server and mysql database, preferably on a Linux server. You can easily use data replication.
