Abstract

A computer that manages a master database synchronizes the master database and a slave database by receiving a change made to the slave database, integrating the change to the slave database into the master database, and sending, to a second computer that manages the slave database, a portion of the master database that has changed since a previous synchronization operation between the master and slave databases.
