DH2i®, a prominent player in the realm of secure and reliable IT solutions, has announced an upcoming live webinar in collaboration with Microsoft and Red Hat. This event, titled “Simplify Hybrid SQL Server: Windows & Red Hat OpenShift Side By Side,” is set to take place on August 20 at 12:00 PM Eastern Time (9:00 AM Pacific Time).
What Attendees Will Learn
As the landscape of IT continues to evolve, many teams are embracing a hybrid model that leverages Kubernetes for development and testing while maintaining production workloads on Windows Server. However, achieving this integration can be challenging. Traditionally, teams have navigated a complex web of platform-specific high availability (HA) solutions, endured time-consuming networking configurations, and managed intricate ETL processes to connect development, testing, and production environments—all while facing the constant risk of downtime.
This webinar is specifically designed for organizations aiming to extend their SQL Server OLTP environments to Red Hat OpenShift. Participants will discover a more secure and straightforward approach to achieving unified HA for hybrid clusters, paving the way for those interested in comprehensive modernization.
During the session, experts from Microsoft, Red Hat, and DH2i will guide attendees through the process of deploying a secure, cross-platform Availability Group (AG) that effectively links a Windows Server virtual machine (VM) with Red Hat OpenShift. Key learning outcomes include:
- Automating the deployment of a Kubernetes AG cluster using an operator
- Establishing secure connections between replicas across platforms via Zero Trust Networking (ZTNA) tunneling
- Implementing HA automation to safeguard databases across hybrid SQL Server environments
This hands-on demonstration will empower IT teams to transition their SQL Server from outdated infrastructure to a scalable, hybrid cloud environment utilizing Azure Red Hat OpenShift.
