  • There is a strong need, from my point of view, for a better method to scale out SQL Server. Specifically, I am looking for a better clustered SQL Server. One where we can have multiple servers accessing the same database. Something along the lines of Oracle. Or maybe a better documented way to use replication and clustering. Hmm.. has anyone done merge replication and clusters?

  • Here's to hoping that MS will take to heart what the MVPs are saying.

    Have a look at peer-to-peer replication.

    Merge is typically for when one of the servers is more important - the publisher. Peer to peer treats all replicas as equal.

    All replication works fine with clustering.
