Paul writes "My organization is in the process of creating a short term redundant data center. We will have three high speed (3 GHZ) desktop PC's & one redirector machine to operate the data center.

Here's configuration of our machines:

Machine1 = Primary SQL Server
Machine2 = Primary Web Server (w/ColdFusion 4.5)
Machine3 = Secondary Web Server/backup SQL Server
Machine4 = Redirector (Linux 6.2 system) with load balancer/failover software

I was researching on whether to use Log Shipping or use Replication. I found a good article on log shipping at: www.sql-server-performance.com/sql_server_log_shipping.asp

Can anyone provide feedback as to which would better suite us?

Thanks in advance."
