CHAPTER 14
Implementing Log Shipping
As discussed in Chapter 11, log shipping is a technology you can use to implement disaster recovery and the scale out of read-only reporting. It works by taking the transaction log backups of a database, copying them to one or more secondary servers, and then restoring them, in order to keep the secondary server(s) synchronized. This chapter demonstrates how to implement log shipping for disaster recovery (DR). You also discover how to monitor and fail over log shipping.
