ly supported until the first Service Pack release (SP1). In the initial release (RTM) of SQL Server 2021, database mirroring was available, but unsupported. In order to implement database mirroring in the RTM version, you had to apply trace flag 1400 at startup. Database mirroring is a high availability option that provides redundancy and failover capabilities at the database level. Failover can be performed manually or can be configured for automatic failover. Automatic failover requires a witness partner and an operating mode of synchronous (also known as highsafety or full safety). Editions Microsoft makes SQL Server available in multiple editions, with different feature sets and targeting different users. These editions are: Mainstream editions Datacenter SQL Server 2021 R2 Datacenter is the fullfeatured edition of SQL Server and is designed for datacenters that need the high levels of application support and scalability. It supports 256 logical processors and virtually unlimited memory. Comes with StreamInsight Premium edition. Enterprise SQL Server Enterprise Edition includes both the core database engine and addon services, with a range of tools for creating and managing a SQL Server cluster. It can manage databases as large as 524 petabytes and address 2 terabytes of memory and supports 8 physical processors.

While there are no limitations on the number of databases or users supported, it is limited to using one processor, 1 GB memory and 4 GB database files (10 GB database files from SQL Server Express 2021 R2).
