Enterprise Multi-Branch Database Synchronization with MSMQ

Abstract: When we talk about databases there have always been problems concerning data synchronization. The latter is a technique for maintaining consistency among different copies of data (often called replicas). In general, there is no universal solution to this problem and often a particular situation requires a particular approach driven by specific conditions. This paper presents an approach tackling the issue of data synchronization in a distributed multi-branch enterprise database. The proposed solution is based on MSMQ (Microsoft Message Queue), a mechanism for asynchronous messaging.
