Sync
On-Premises Applications
Sync
Synchronization> Why you need sync:
> Incremental changes> Unreliable and/or slow network> Conflict detection and resolution> Topology flexibility
> How to get sync:> Build it yourself, but sync is not easy!> Use Microsoft Sync Framework

Offline-Capable Applications
> Why?> Availability when occasionally
connected or disconnected> Interactive clients query lots of
data> Interactive clients require
minimal query latency> Reduce server-side load> Reduce network usage
> Examples:> Sales, deliveries, real-
estate agents, auditors> Branch office, retail stores> Outlook Exchange Cached

>>FUTUREData Sync Service
> Service> End-user application> Little or no development required, mainly
configuration> Provide more out-of-the-box, but narrower scope> Pay for use
> Scenarios> Client database roaming and sharing; e.g. Access,
SQL Server Compact> Offline-capable clients> B2B data integration
> Capabilities> Distributed data management, client management &
monitoring, user authentication & authorization, scale
RoadmapNov’09 –SyncFX Power Pack for SQL Azure CTP• SQL Azure provider• Windows Azure Platform samples• VS tooling add-in• SQL Azure data sync tool for SQL Server
H1’10 – SyncFX V2.1• Sync Framework V2 with full support for Windows Azure Platform• SQL Azure provider and SyncFX deployable to a web role• VS tooling add-in’s• Incremental DB provider improvements
H2’10 – SyncFX V3• Extended client reach via sync protocol and server/service-side sync• Alignment with “online” frameworks• VS tooling for client and server/service
