Is there any book (books?) to help us creating a Sync tool (Bidirectional)

Hi guys,

We have been looking for books which cover the DB synchronisation subject. We have started creating a plugin to our socket server but we quickly realised how much of a challenge it would be (We are creating it "from scratch"). The conflict problems, the order to tables (rows) be synchronised (Child - Parent) and how to delete rows were some of the problems we found. The main goal is to synchronise devices in the field (Compact framework) to the server using less bandwich as possible.
We are trying to be "agnostic" about the DB in both Server and Client side.

We are pretty sure there are books out there which cover this subject, we just couldn't find them! Wink

We know this will be a challenge but we also know it will be a great feature to add to the server.

Does anyone could point me out to any book?

Cheers

Instead of reinventing the wheel, maybe you should have a look at ADO.NET Synchronization Services. http://blogs.msdn.com/Synchronizer/
