Data Replication
Data Replication is Essential for the Mobile Workforce
As the enterprise workforce becomes more mobile and distributed, data replication is increasingly important as a means of keeping employees connected to essential business information and applications. Mobile employees need access to information regardless of whether they are online or offline. Many workers such as sales people or field force employees may go for significant periods of time without a connection to the network, yet they still require the ability to use the application and the underlying data as if they were connected. A superior data replication solution can help by allowing end users to work with applications irrespective of network conditions, ensuring that applications keep pace with the demands of the distributed workforce. For best-in-class replication software, leading enterprises around the world rely on Progress Software.
Progress Software Offers Leading Data Replication Solutions
Progress® DataXtend™ RE (Replication Edition) delivers essential capabilities for managing distributed databases and enterprise applications. DataXtend RE makes it possible for remote offices and mobile users to receive the same quality of service levels, optimal performance and reduced management costs as users and offices at central corporate locations. Through a unique patented technology for two-way, read-write replication of databases, DataXtend RE allows organizations to manage data across multiple sites, geographies, platforms, and database management systems. Distributed enterprises using Progress data replication solutions can centrally manage the data distribution, and distributed databases can be transparently synchronized with central servers. This makes deploying and supporting distributed applications just as cost effective as deploying web-based programs, but without the limitations on the network normally expected when accessing a centralized server and database.
DataXtend RE Delivers Significant Data Replication Benefits for Distributed Enterprises
Progress Software's data replication solution provides features and benefits that allow enterprises to more easily manage their distributed environments. A simple-to-use administration console allows administrators to manage a network of .distributed applications and databases such as Oracle, MS SQL, and others. A powerful software development kit enables developers to embed and integrate the capabilities with new or existing software applications, and deploy a variety of integration tools and templates to optimize and accelerate distributed and mobile application development. And a dynamic data slicing architecture enables enterprises to provide only the information each remote site or end user requires, in order to minimize network traffic.
Progress Software also delivers solutions for object oriented database management systems, real time data management, database management software, SQL Server replication, trading algorithms and transaction processing.
Distribute and Mobilize Your Data
