(RDS) Tip of the Day: Protect your RDS Deployment! Configure disaster recovery for Remote Desktop Services

  • Artikel

Today's tip...

When you deploy Remote Desktop Services into your environment, it becomes a critical part of your infrastructure, particularly the apps and resources that you share with users. If the RDS deployment goes down due to anything from a network failure to a natural disaster, users can't access those apps and resources, and your business is negatively impacted. To avoid this, you can configure a disaster recovery solution that allows you to failover your deployment - if your RDS deployment is unavailable, for whatever reason, there is a backup available to automatically take over.

To keep your RDS deployment running in the case of a single component or machine going down, we recommend configuring your RDS deployment for high availability. You can do this by setting up an RDSH farm and ensuring your Connection Brokers are clustered for high availability.

The disaster recovery solutions we recommend here are to protect your deployment from catastrophic disaster - something that takes down your entire RDS deployment (including redundant roles configured for high availability). If such a disaster hits, having a disaster recovery solution built into your deployment will allow you to failover the entire deployment and quickly get apps and resources up and running for your users.

Use the following information to deploy disaster recovery solutions in RDS:
