What is database replicaion? What are the different types of replication you can set up in SQL Ser..

Answer / sachin rathi

Database replication is the creation and maintenance of
multiple copies of the same database.

In most implementations of database replication, one
database server maintains the master copy of the database
and additional database servers maintain slave copies of
the database.

Database writes are sent to the master database server and
are then replicated by the slave database servers.

Database reads are divided among all of the database
servers, which results in a large performance advantage due
to load sharing.

In addition, database replication can also improve
availability because the slave database servers can be
configured to take over the master role if the master
database server becomes unavailable.
