Abstract

Simplifying synchronization of copies of same data used by multiple applications, in particular, between a source application and multiple target applications. In one embodiment, a synchronization tool (provided external to the source application and the multiple target applications) pulls information of interest from a data store associated with the source application using a web service and then pushes the retrieved information of interest to corresponding data stores associated with the multiple target applications using respective web services.
