11. 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)

13. 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

14. 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

15. 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

19. Private CLOUD Hybrid CLOUD

20. 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 Private CLOUD

21. 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) Private CLOUD
