SQL Server Database Mirroring is going to die. How can I guarantee high availability now? The Database Mirroring feature of SQL Server is going to die:


  This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL
  Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to
  modify applications that currently use this feature. Use AlwaysOn
  Availability Groups instead.


Anyone knows when? What are my options for an High Availability (and quick recovery) database?
As noted, mirroring is not dead.  (At least not yet.)  The general population doubts that Microsoft would totally abandon HA for Standard Edition.

However, there are other methods.  In the SQL Server 2012 documentation when referring to mirroring it says: "If your edition of SQL Server does not support AlwaysOn Availability Groups, use log shipping."

There is plenty of instruction on using log shipping.
