  • Apparatus and method for identifying asynchronous data in redundant data stores and for re-synchronizing same
    Patent number: 7788225
    Abstract: A computer readable medium includes executable instruction to compare databases. The executable instructions are configured to identify when a segment of a first database is conditionally out of synchronization with a corresponding segment of a second database to establish a conditionally out of synchronization state at a first time. Executable instructions allow a latency period after the first time in which changes are made to the first database and the second database. Executable instructions also determine after the latency period whether the segment of the first database is in synchronization with the corresponding segment of the second database. Executable instructions also populate a resynchronization table, which is used by a replication mechanism to bring asynchronous rows into synchronization.
