    There is a feature "Automatic fail-over" in "Always on High Availability Group"

    Do we need another node (3rd node) for Automatic fail-over for AO HA Group ? or can we implement Automatic fail-over with 2 nodes ?

    This is all covered in my stairway series.

    Currently in sql server 2014, only 2 replicas may be configured for auto failover, a maximum of 3 replicas may be configured for synchronous commit mode.

    Synchronous commit is required for auto failover.
