sql 2008 to sql 2016

  • Hi all, 
    I need to migrate couple of DB's of SQL 2008 to SQL 2016 
    there is a replication setup between old servers 
    Just need to know if there are any benefits of using Always on instead of replication
    I need to create a pros & cons kind of document for the department 

    Thanks

  • Availability Groups is a HA solution. The secondaries are up to date with the primary, but either inaccessible or read only

    there are some difference b/w replication and always on features. I'd like to know any dependent systems those have been pulling data from your team ?
