Setting up high availability for Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services in Scale Out deployment on Amazon EC2

Blog



This article explains how to set up high availability for Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) Scale Out deployment on Amazon EC2, presenting two architectural approaches.

  • SSIS Scale Out enables horizontal scaling of SSIS packages across multiple Worker nodes
  • Option 1: Use SQL Server Failover Cluster Instance (FCI) with Amazon FSx shared storage
  • Option 2: Use SQL Server Always On availability group for SSIS high availability
  • Both options require SSISDB catalog database and SSIS Master Scale Out service configuration
  • FCI provides instance-level failover; Always On provides database-level replication
  • SQL Server 2022 contained availability groups simplify object management across nodes
  • Prerequisites include VPC with multiple AZs, Active Directory, and Windows Failover Cluster

Both methods ensure SSIS packages continue running without interruption during node failures, maintaining mission-critical workload availability on AWS.
