Replication Documentation Map

Replication is a set of technologies for copying and distributing data and database objects from one database to another and then synchronizing between databases to maintain consistency. Using replication, you can distribute data to different locations and to remote or mobile users over local and wide area networks, dial-up connections, wireless connections, and the Internet.

It is recommended that you first look through one or more of the scenarios provided in the first two sections of the following table to understand how replication can support your application and business requirements. You can then use the sections on configuring, maintaining, and programming replication for detailed conceptual, procedural, and reference information on all replication features.
