Distributing and synchronizing objects is disclosed. An object (including the data and behavior for the object) is copied into local address space. The state of the various object copies across a network may not be synchronized due to local changes and modifications. To synchronize the objects, a policy that specifies conditions as to when objects are synchronized is used. For example, a policy may provide for synchronization that is based temporally (e.g., every 10 minutes or daily at 10:00 P.M.) or based on the type or number of messages transmitted. A default policy may provide for the synchronization of local objects whenever a client issues a request from the remote server. The remote server transmits any updated object information when it responds to the local object request. The updated object information may be utilized to synchronize the objects.
