Harness the Power of Kubernetes to Achieve Truly Cloud-Agnostic SQL Server

Thanh Oj Ngo

SQL Server uptime is a moving target, and the pursuit of “5 nines” is an exhaustive endeavor for both your team and budget. The double-edged cloud sword promises the ability to pay-as-you-go for a greater level of cost-control, but the unfortunate outcome of vendor lock-in.

Kubernetes and containers provide a potential path towards enhanced infrastructure autonomy but bring along other critical concerns such as orchestration complexity and downtime.

What if you could eliminate these concerns and fully redeem containerization’s promise of peak flexibility, scalability, and resource utilization, all while enhancing the technology to unlock total infrastructure freedom?

Join DH2i and Microsoft as they blaze the path for you to a truly cloud-agnostic SQL Server environment. In this session, they will:

Build a multi-cloud SQL Server Availability Group (AG) containing AKS, EKS, and GKE replicas
Demonstrate a state-of-the-art automation tool to simplify SQL Server Kubernetes deployments to mere minutes
Show fully automatic cross-platform SQL Server failover between clouds and Availability Zones

The path is paved to accelerate your organization’s digital transformation with Kubernetes. Not only can you achieve a truly cloud-agnostic SQL Server, but you can unify all SQL Server under management. Windows, Linux, and Kubernetes–containers or instances–in one single, unified, high availability framework.
