Question of the Day Thirty

Let us continue our question of the day series with our final day, day thirty.

What is replication?

SQL Server replication is a process of distributing database objects across different instances and then synchronizing the data between the instances involved.  This is great for remote application as well as mobile users across slower networks.  I’ve personally worked with replication where data was synchronized over air cards to laptops with workers in the field with great success.

Enjoy!
