SQL Server 2012's hottest new feature combined the best of clustering, mirroring, and replication to give you high availability plus scale-out reads. Does it make sense for your database server?  Brent Ozar has deployed AlwaysOn AGs in high-profile setups like StackOverflow.com, AllRecipes.com, and Discovery Education.
