PI AF High Availability Collective

PI AF HA that is read/write, for PI Analysis and PI Notifications also.

    Our current recommendation is to use a load balancer for AF Application Service, Windows Server failover clustering for PI Analysis Service and PI Notifications Service. This provides redundancy for the services. For SQL Server backend, we currently recommend that you use SQL Server Always On Availability groups. These configuration ensure redundancy and read/write after failover, which was not supported with AF Collectives. We current have no plans to further update the AF Collective implementation.

    It's unclear what this request actually is. What specific part of PI Analysis needs to be read/write? What specific part of Notifications need to be read/write? I can see why PI AF HA Collective can be seen as a preferable solution to a SQL Server with AlwaysOn, especially if there are current implementations out there, but why is it preferable to enhance Collectives.
