    Hello:

    I know now that AlwaysOn feature HAS to be installed/configured on a Windows Clustering environment, BUT the secondary replicas, like the Disaster recovery replica residing in a different Data Center HAS to be also in a Windows Clustering environment or can it reside on a SINGLE SQL Server INSTANCE?.

    Appreciate your help.

    Thanks

    Standalone SQL Instance works for secondary replica.

    I have implemented for DR setup.
