Recipes are templates for common replication scenarios that you can use to accelerate your data replication journey.

  • One-way database replication: Performs an Initial Load and ensures the target database is kept in sync with the source database.
  • Active-Active database replication: Performs an Initial Load on the source database, and then applies change events in both directions to keep the databases synchronized.

    Note:

    If you encounter a warning about sequences detected, ensure that you don't replicate database generated sequential values. The range of values must be different on each system, with no chance of overlap. For example, in a two-database environment, you can have one server generate even values, and the other odd. For an n-server environment, start each key at a different value and increment the values by the number of servers in the environment. This method may not be available to all types of applications or databases. If the application permits, you can add a location identifier to the value to enforce uniqueness.
