We use the most basic features of the product.

We use the solution for warehouse purposes. We built an SQL server on the solution.

Windows Server Failover Clustering is mainly used for what the name is, meaning that you can create a cluster, bunch, for example, a bunch of servers that are identical and perform the same way, one like the other, to handle the same task or connection or request. And it allows you to create a virtual unit that contains multiple identical units. For example, if you want to use virtualization with Hyper-V and you want to deploy, five notes or five servers each one of them hosts the Hyper-V service for virtualization, and you want a virtual machine to run on every node of the cluster, then you will need to deploy or to use Windows Server Failover Clustering that you will create a virtual unit from, or that is based on physical units. This is for servers. And also you can create clusters of applications. For example, if you want to use a cluster of IAS services, you need to also use the Windows Server Failover Clustering. For example, to have a cluster of my MySQL database, you also need to use this service. If you want to use or deploy storage or file server servers, a cluster of file servers, you also need this service, meaning that each time you want to use high availability and failover Clustering, you need to deploy Windows Server Failover Clustering.

The primary use case is increasing the availability of servers (Fail-, Mail-, RDBMS, …).

We primarily use the solution for redundancy, our virtual machines, and for automatic failover.

The solution switches over to another server in case the server goes down.
