What is multi-server database replication?
Multi-server database replication involves duplicating the database from the primary server on multiple servers or database systems for ease of data accessibility and availability. The other database servers could be located locally or at remote locations. Multi-server database replication is not as simple as it may sound. When a database is replicated, each copy should be synchronized in real time for any updates made to database so that the data in each replica is consistent. When the end user accesses the database, he is given the impression that there is a single centralized database to avoid any confusion. Multi-server database replication is also known as multi-source data replicator.
Thus, a multi-source data replicator is a software tool that handles database replication, updation, communication and synchronization between multiple servers having replicas of database. Various applications and tools facilitate multi-server database replication and multi-source data replicator. One such software application is MMM or Continuous Multi-directional Replication.
