Mirroring or Replication

  • Hi,

    I need to sync only 5 tables from a production database to another database. What is the best practice to sync only few tables from database to database ??

    Regards

  • Mirroring is per database, and the mirror database is inaccessible. Doesn't sound like that's what you want.

  • Yes. Transactional Replication would be the best option.

  • Okay.. I started to do the transaction replication (since I only need the changes for those tables) Ive my server on a Cluster and SQL is Standar version. Both databases are located on the same Server.

    I followed this instructions: http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/howdoi/?p=123
