SQL Server 2000 "Yukon" architecture
Hi,
could you tell me whether Microsoft have achieved cluster technology with "Yukon" or not?
As announced in article: Database Architecture: Federated vs. Clustered-An Oracle White Paper March2002, "...According to Michael Otey, Senior Technical Editor, SQL Server Magazine:�Technically, this setup isn�t a true clustered implementation. According to Microsoft, SQL Server won�t support true clustering until the post-SQL Server 2000 release, code named Yukon.�(Yukon is not expected to be shipped until well into 2003.) - But when I browse msdn, there is nothing on the architecture itself.
I am doing my Master's thesis on 9iRAC, and I need this information to complete my research. I found several Oracle white papers talking about federated vs. clustered architecture. As said in Response to "Reality behind Real
Application Clusters Marketing Messages"- An Oracle White Paper March, 2003"..when in truth Microsoft does not have a cluster database." Is this still the truth? Can somebody from ORACLE provide me with tips/links to complete this topic?
I am also Oracle DBA, Oracle customer, registered on Metalink.
Thank you for the support.
