How do you implement advanced connection resiliency with failover and multi-endpoint routing in ADO.NET?

Updated Apr 28, 2026

Short answer

Use connection strings with failover partners, retries, and health-based routing.

Deep explanation

Advanced resiliency combines SQL Server failover configurations (like Availability Groups), intelligent retry strategies, and application-level routing. The client can automatically connect to secondary replicas when the primary fails. Combine this with retry policies and circuit breakers to avoid cascading failures.
