Hi,
Could someone please point me to papers or books about how to manage links between a large data at a remote location and smaller cache of it at a local site.

I need to allow my users to manipulate huge amounts of data on very tiny machines. The users can't have all the data available to them locally. I also don't want each of their queries to go to the network and bring back data. I would like a framework which understands when it needs to get data from beyond the local machine.

I will most likely have an sql database on the server and something custom built for the local machine. In other words, I'm interested in ideas behind how to solve this problem rathern than pointers to packages.

(I have started going through vldb.org as well)
