SQL Remote User's Guide
Welcome to SQL Remote
SQL Remote is a data-replication technology designed for two-way replication between a consolidated data server and large numbers of remote databases, typically including many mobile databases.
SQL Remote replication is message based, and requires no direct server-to-server connection. An occasional dial-up or e-mail link is sufficient.
Administration and resource requirements at the remote sites are minimal. The time lag between the consolidated and remote databases is configurable, and can range from minutes to hours or days.
Sybase SQL Remote technology is provided in two forms:
SQL Remote for Adaptive Server Anywhere Enables replication between a consolidated Adaptive Server Anywhere database and a large number of remote databases.
SQL Remote for Adaptive Server Enterprise Enables replication between a consolidated Adaptive Server Enterprise database and a large number of remote Adaptive Server Anywhere databases.
This book describes both of these technologies.
In a SQL Remote installation, you must have properly licensed SQL Remote software at each participating database.
