Extracting Regional Databases in Parallel

Parallel Database Extract is a version of the Database Extract server component that starts extractions in parallel. The Parallel Database Extract server component improves performance when Replication Manager extracts a large database for one or more regional nodes. It is an interactive component, using server infrastructure features to do data extractions in parallel for a large regional node. It uses multithreaded components to do this work more quickly than a single thread operation. Parallel Database Extract requires more hardware, but it can significantly reduce the time that Replication Manager requires to do a database extract.

To extract a regional database by using the Parallel Database Extract option, you can use the administrative interface or the command line interface.
