Hi good day!
Currently, our company uses an rdp connection for our application to the other branches to connect to the main server, but since rdp is always dependent on internet connection, we always have a problem with it regularly because of slow and unstable internet
connection. So I've come up for an idea to use and study this synchronization tools/software that can integrate online and offline scenario that is applicable for sql express user. However, since our company is in a hurry, I don't know if sync framework will
fit to our needs and requirements, so I need some assistance and advice on how to do it.
Here's our scenario: Our company has 3 branches including the main branch, if i will be using sync tools, these branches must have a sql server express installed with each other so that they can connect locally on its own. The main branch will act as a central
database and collects/receives all the transactions, including update and delete, made by the branches (preferably sales transactions and inventory movements). So the branches will send all of its transactions to the central database regularly while the main
branch will also send the updated prices of the inventory to the branches (Actually, updating of inventory prices is not really a problem because I can use sql data compare to it). So the problems that always comes to my mind is that, how can I manage data
collection/synchronization from this proposed method? So that the main database once collects/receives data from the other databases it won't affect its own transactions. Is sync framework can handle this problem of mine before I make a full study of it? Or
is there any other option aside from sync framework that can fully integrate this scenario?
So, I really really need your advice and wisdom regarding this problem.
You're help will be greatly appreciated.
Anyway, i'm using c# for the application that i'm developing with sql server 2012 express on its side.
Thank you very much,
Hardz
