    But as far as I know WSFC required a shared storage.

    It's not the WSFC that requires the shared storage, it's the application you provision on top that requires it, in this case a Failover Cluster Instance of SQL Server.

    Ideally all instances, or replicas as they are now known, in an Availability Group would be standalone instances. You can of course integrate an FCI into an Availability group but it introduces complexity and restrictions, which you're trying to mitigate in the first place.

    Read through my stairway series and post back if you're still stuck

    Hi Perry,

    Thanks for replying in this thread ! Sure, i am already climbing the staircases ;)!.

    Just want to double check if you and gurus here.. ->

    Is there any best practice, or recommendations when deploying a DR solution using Standard edition ?

    (without using log shipping or mirroring)

    Can we do a 2 node failover cluster across sites ?

    found these 2 terms (multi-site failover cluster and multi-subnet failover Clusters) are they the same ?

    Regards,

    Noob
