• Hardware
• Use SLAT enabled hardware
• Intel – VT
• AMD - -V
• Storage
• Storage Spaces (HBA) vs Array Controller vs SAN
• Scale out File Server/SMB 3.0
• Network
• Use 10GbE
• Use multiple physical adapters per host
• NIC Teaming (on the Host)
•
Clustering
• Cluster Aware Updating
•
Storage
• Optimize for Random IO
• Dedicate disks to SQL
• Compute
• Get hardware with offload technologies ie. RSS, DCB, RSC, RDMA
•
VM Affinity / Availability sets
•
Live Migration
• Live Storage Migration
• Shared-nothing Live Migration
Hyper-V Replica
• Replicate disk changes to a VHD between sites
• A cheaper HA option
•
•
Operating System
• Configure templates to deploy Windows Server ‘Core’
•
SQL Host and Guest CPU
• Virtual NUMA
•
SQL Memory
• Dynamic Memory (manage this in WAP)
•
SQL Storage
• Virtual Disks
• VHDX -Fixed vs Dynamic sizing (not passthru)
• Guest Storage
• SMB 3.0
• Virtual Hard disk sharing (Server 2012 R2)
•
SQL Network
• DVMQ, vRSS
• SR-IOV (virtual function on NIC)
• QoS /DCB bandwidth management
• HA with Guest Clustering
• Use anti affinity to keep VMs on separate hosts
• HA DR with Always On
• SQL Cluster / Clustering
• Not limited by virtualization on Hyper-V
• all SQL and Hyper-V features available and supported.
• Hyper-V Replica
• Async, 30 seconds, 5 & 15 minute sync options
• Azure Recovery Services
• Virtual Machine Manager
• Fabric Config
• VM management
• Dynamic Optimization
• App Controller
• Service manager
• Orchestrator
• Operations Manager – SQL MP
• Data Protection manager
• What’s being delivered
• Extensions to SQL Server Sysprep functionality to support image based
deployment of clustered SQL Server instances
• Main benefits
• Full automation of SQL Server Failover Cluster deployment scenarios (private and public cloud)
• Reduces deployment times for SQL Server Failover
Clusters
• Built on top of SQL Server 2012 SP1 CU2 Sysprep
enhancements
• Database Engine
• Reporting Services
• Analysis Services
• Integration Services
• Shared features
• What’s being delivered
• Usage of non-volatile drives (SSD) to extend buffer pool
• Main benefits
• Improve query performance
• No risk of data loss (using clean pages only)
• Easy configuration
Example:
ALTER SERVER CONFIGURATION
SET BUFFER POOL EXTENSION ON
(FILENAME = 'F:\SSDCACHE\EXAMPLE.BPE‘,
SIZE = 50 GB)
