Distributed Computing
Distributed Computing Requires Superior Data Replication and Synchronization
The distributed network is fast becoming the standard for enterprise computing. With the growth of the mobile workforce and the decentralization of corporate offices, enterprises must work diligently to ensure that information remains available to users throughout the enterprise. Complicating this task is the fact that users in remote offices may have only limited bandwidth to connect to the network, and mobile users, like such as salespeople, may spend significant periods of time offline, yet still need access to a variety of applications in order to maintain performance. While distributed computing represents a challenge to continuous business processes and high availability, there are effective solutions. When leading enterprises today require superior data replication and synchronization solutions for distributed computing, they turn to Progress Software.
