1. How does Database Mirroring works?

In database mirroring, the transaction log records for a database are directly transferred from one server to another, thereby maintaining a hot standby server. As the principal server writes the database’s log buffer to disk, it simultaneously sends that block of log records to the mirror instance. The mirror server continuously applies the log records to its copy of the database. Mirroring is implemented on a per-database basis, and the scope of protection that it provides is restricted to a single-user database. Database mirroring works only with databases that use the full recovery model.
