Abstract

Computer-supported method for building and/or synchronising a second database from/with a first database, accesses by work units being carried out at least on the first database from at least one application workstation, to generate, change or delete contents of the database, with at least one first server to guide and maintain the first database, said server being connected to at least one application workstation, at least one second server to guide and maintain the second database, at least one data connection which connects the two servers, a software program component being provided by which, in the case of a transaction which is initiated from one application workstation on the first database, a sister transaction can be called up on the second database and vice versa—in which case, from the point of view of the application workstation, the sister transaction on the side of the second database behaves analogously to its counterpart on the side of the first database.
