Hi,
We have a reporting requirement where we would like up-to-date copies of databases from 2 different instances to be made available on the same, new, reporting server. I would much prefer the databases to be in the same instance to avoid cross-instance queries.
Instance 1
Databases:
oltp1
oltp2
oltp3
Instance 2
Databases:
dwh1
New Reporting Instance
Requirement: Readonly databases from the above 2 instances combined in this instance
Databases:
dwh1
oltp1
oltp2
I am looking at creating Always On Availability Groups as a readonly replica looks good. However I am unsure if the databases from the 2 instances can reside on the same reporting instance, or do they need to reside in separate instances.
Thanks!
