Best Windows-based database for replication/synchronization

Are there Windows databases on the market that allow a database to be
maintained simultaneously in two locations? IOW, both copies of the
database are automatically and continually kept synchronized with each
other to within a few seconds.



A customer has asked me to upgrade a system I did for them many years
ago, based on Microsoft Access, in order to improve the response time
when the loading is heavy. Presently, the web server and the database
server are on two different machines and I think the communication
between the two is the bottleneck when traffic is heavy.



I'm wondering if a synchronizing database would be an effective
solution without having to rewrite a lot of ASP code.



Thanks
