Implementing High Availability in Windows Server 2016
The need for always-on applications in this day and age is at an all time high, and so the need for high availability technologies. This course explores preparing, configuring, and managing high availability technologies in Windows Server 2016.
What you'll learn
Windows services these days nearly never stands alone. Our needs for always-on applications means just about everything you manage must be made highly available. This course, Implementing High Availability in Windows Server 2016, discusses the range of high availability technologies now available in Windows Server 2016 for Hyper-V as well as other common Windows services. You'll explore the preparation, configuration, and management of Windows Failover Clustering, both with and without Storage Spaces Direct. You'll also dig into Storage Replica, Hyper-V Replica, Network Load Balancing, Shared Nothing Live Migration, Stretch Clustering, among a range of other out-of-the-box technologies for Windows workloads. By the end of this course, you will have the foundational knowledge to be able to implement a highly available Windows Server 2016 environment.
