TIBCO BusinessEvents® Enterprise Edition 6.3.1

# Microsoft SQL Server

Here are a few helpful points about SQL Server:

## SQL Server authentication for non-production purposes

It is convenient to use SQL Server authentication so you can create database users as needed. Select this option when you install Microsoft SQL Server. With Windows Authentication, on the other hand, you may have difficulties creating users without help from others in your enterprise.

## Availability Group

An availability group must be ready and dedicated to TIBCO BusinessEvents so that the a TIBCO BusinessEvents database or TIBCO BusinessEvents databases can be added to that group.

Note: It is required to create a full backup of the database before adding it the availability group.

## SQL Server AlwaysOn Availability Groups

The AlwaysOn Availability Groups feature in SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition is a high-availability and disaster-recovery solution used by TIBCO BusinessEvents. To implement this feature, make sure that your SQL Server setup is up and running properly as per the Microsoft documentation.

## Connection Properties to the SQL Server Cluster

Use the availability group listener defined at the SQL Server cluster level in the TIBCO BusinessEvents JDBC resource. The availability group listener enables clients to connect to a SQL Server replica without knowing the name of the physical instance of the SQL Server, for example:

    jdbc:sqlserver://sqlserver-group-listener:1433;databaseName=be_user

To allow faster TCP connection retries, use the `property multiSubnetFailover=true` even if your cluster is on the same subnet as recommended by Microsoft,

Set this property in the BusinessEvents JDBC resource in the URL field, for example:

    jdbc:sqlserver://sqlserver-group-listener:1433;databaseName=be_user;multiSubnetFailover=true
    To support Windows authentication, use property integratedSecurity=true

See SQL Server authentication vs. Windows authentication for details.
