Which replication type to choose ??

  • Hello,

    I have two web servers that connect to different sql backend's (db have the same schema) , that log the visits to the web sites, i want to setup replication so both db are replicated to each other, updates going both directions. Can anyone advise me what they recommend?? I have a sneaking suspicion that I can't do this because they have been runnin independently for a while and the identity fields will clash, a possible re-seeding my be in order 🙁

    Cheers,

  • Likely you can set up identity ranges for each server and manage that.

    I'd look at bi-directional transactional and merge, and then see which one seems to suit your needs. Merge is more complex, but can handle collisions better.

  • Cheers for that, and yeah i've decided to use identity range for the tables, thanks again 🙂
