MS SQL database backup to other site RRS feed

  • Question

  • Hi,

    I have a microsoft SQL 2008 R2 Standard database in Site A and want Site B to be the back-up just in case Site A losses power for what ever reason or the server on Site A goes down. What would be the best disaster recovery method for this? I have heard of replication, log shipping and mirroring and am thinking to use mirroring. Would this be the best option?

    Thanks!
