Over the last several years, we’ve designed, implemented, tested, and supported hundreds of synchronization scenarios. We’ve recently updated our design document templates that we use to get projects started the right way.
The complexity of synchronization scenarios we’ve encountered varies drastically depending on many factors including:
The good news is, it’s all very doable. We’ve implemented solutions from 2 Nodes to 50,000 Nodes, from small transaction volumes to huge transaction volumes, from identical schemas to complete transformations between normalized and denormalized schemas. Two critical pieces to a smooth implementation are the right tool, and a good design, done upfront.
The tough part of a good design is that unless you’ve “been there, and done that”, it can be hard to know what the critical design elements are, and what questions you should be asking. That’s where talking with experts in the field and utilizing design document templates can certainly help. We’ve recently updated our SymmetricDS Synchronization Design Document template that we use as part of all of our JumpStart consulting engagements. It’s a great template to help customers think through their scenario, rate its complexity, and begin implementation on solid footing.
If you are starting on a synchronization project, we’d be happy to send you the design templates we work with in order to get you started. Just send us a quick note from the Contact Us form with a little background on your synchronization scenario and we’ll email it your way.
“Luck is the residue of design.”
