Volume Replicator replicates data in three modes.
Each of the modes follows a different method to replicate the data, and behaves differently under different network conditions. You can choose the mode of replication depending on your specific requirements.
The following factors also determine the choice of modes:
Available bandwidth
Network round-trip time
Number of participating hosts
Amount of data to be replicated
Geographical distance
Irrespective of the mode that you choose for replication, Volume Replicator maintains complete data integrity. You must, however, ensure that average bandwidth of your network must be adequate for the update rate of the application.
