Hi,
We’re looking to upgrade our Production SQL Cluster infrastructure. Currently we are running on old hardware and software….We currently have two nodes in the cluster. 2-Proliant DL380 Gen5 servers connected to our HP MSA2000 for shared storage(Direct Attached Storage) using a SAS cable with 1 terabyte. Windows 2008 R2 enterprise with Clustering turned-on and SQL 2005 server. The DB isn't that big, but it is crucial to our company…. I was curious to get some opinions what would be our best options to upgrade….. We have two spare physical Proliant DL380 Gen 8 servers w/ 64 gigs of ram and total of 1.5 terabyte of worth of disk space. We would have all the HD bay’s with HD’s therefore no need for a new HP MSA /direct attached storage….. So should we go with Windows 2012 Enterprise with SQL Enterprise and turnon SQL Always on Availability Group? Or any other recommendations? Any suggestion and comment would be greatly appreciated.
