Application independent record level synchronization

摘要

A method and an apparatus for synchronization of a first set of data with a second set of data at the record level. A memory stores a change detection mechanism for generating a Change List for the first and second sets of data. The Change List lists the changes made at the record level to the first and second sets of data. The memory also has a Synchronization mechanism for making the first set of data and the second set of data equivalent by using the information in the Change List generated by the Change Detection Mechanism. A processor runs the Change Detection mechanism and the Synchronization mechanism.
