At the beginning of this chapter, we started with the simplest of system designs for Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012. We have learned why this design does not provide what's needed for high availability of Microsoft Dynamics AX.

Step-by-step, we have adjusted the design to work our way around various issues. This includes introducing redundancy and scaling out the AOS instances for better load balancing.

The design that was demonstrated in this chapter can be easily implemented for any project and will help you make sure that Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 is not the weakest link. This will greatly improve the overall reliability of the system.

In the next chapter, we will take a look at the tools that we can use for the tracing and debugging of services.
