Easiest thing to do is just migrate to O365. Let Microsoft handle the high availability. <br />
<br />
Otherwise, get another license for Exchange Server, and take this opportunity to upgrade to Exchange 2016 (you need new Exchange Server licenses and CALs, did I mention that you should just to to O365?).<br />
<br />
In the Exchange 2016, you can setup DAG, which is part of Exchange high availability. The servers in DAG can be in separate sites connected by VPN. There are a ton of materials out there to help you understand and plan the Exchange upgrade process and how to implement DAG.<br />
<br />
I wouldn't take the effort to put in DAG on Exchange 2010. Exchange 2010 goes end of support in January 2020, so there isn't much time left to get off it.

i have just one exchange server on premise; an exchange 2010 server. I want to replicate this server for redundancy. Please how can i go about it. I have a Hyper V with Virtual machines &nbsp;sitting in my domain as well. &nbsp;How can i replicate it on the virtual machine and load balance between them. Is that possible. Can i move it to another branch office location that i have a VPN site-to-site &nbsp;connection for disaster recovery? &nbsp;I would appreciate any good documentation on this . How does DAG play here?

Replicating my single exchange 2010 server to reduce single point of failure

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.

Virtualization

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.
