Synchronizing two similar database offline

  • I am stuck with a problem. I have similar databases on two boxes which have no connectivity with each other. Each database may be connected by respective users & data can be inserted/updated daily. What I need to achieve is, at the end of business hours the transactions done in each database should be reflected onto the other one also. I mean at the end of the day both should have same data. Is there a way this can be achieved offline?

  • Hi ,

    You may synchronize the the two databases using any synchronizing tools.

    I use the xSQL compare tool for data synchronization between two similar database.

    Dunno any query as such for doing that.

  • What types of transactions are occurring on the 2 databases ? Updates ?

    What if PersonA updates Database_A.TableA.Cost = $25.00

    while PersonB updates Database_B.TableA.Cost = $40.00

    What should happen when you synchronize ?

    If the servers can "talk" to each other, I think Merge Replication would do what you want.

    (Or am I misunderstanding your situation ?)
