Hello everyone!
Here's the problem:
I got an assignment from my professor to demonstrate the use of Microsoft Sync Framework by doing this stuff:
- Create three databases that are basically the same (i.e. all of them contain the same table, for example 'Users')
- Create three different client applications. One should be a Windows Forms application that uses one of the created databases, and the other two should be APS.NET WebSites that use the other two databases respectively.
- Every application should have a basic means of inserting (and getting) data to/from it's own database, and every change to that database should be reflected (synchronized) into the other two databases so that the other application can see those changes right away.
I know that this sounds silly because I could just create one database and use that same database from every application, but this is how I have to do it.
First of all, I have to say that this is my first time ever to deal with Microsoft Sync Framework (MSF) so I have no idea even whether it's possible to achieve this using MSF or not.
So, essentially what I'm asking you is:
- Is it possible to make this work?
- How difficult is it to achieve?
- I know that you can't teach me about this by posting comments in this forum so I'm asking you to share with me links to resources such as tutorials, demonstrations, videos, blogs or whatever, that most closely deal with this subject so I can read through and learn.
Thank you very, very much for your help! :)
