Re: Data replication: suggestion needed

Cristian

I don't really understand why you want to do this. Eventually, the data at the central site will be completely different to that at the periphery sites. Any form of replication that allows updates at the periphery site with this configuration will mean the data won't get into the periphery sites tables from the master but will stay in the error logs because of conflicts.

What exactly are you trying to achieve?

The same application with the same underlying database structure is installed at all sites. Changes made at the peripheric databases must propagate to the central database on demand. Changes made at the central database must not propagate to the peripheric database.
