Client/Server and Server/Server Intellegent Compare

Van · Guest

We use VV and think it's a great product. Thank you.

We have offices in several locations around the world and have large amounts of data we keep in sync between servers. VV handles it but it's extremely slow.

We would like to see a C/S and/or S/S intelligent compare system. It would be nice if there was a service that ran on each server that would perform the scan every five minutes and update it's own local database of what has changed. Then when a remote system connects looking for changes, the database is scanned from some marker and the files are synchronized.

The goal is to avoid the extremely long and painful directory/folder scan that occurs by the remote system every time VV performs a check for changes.

has there been any improvements/developments in this direction?

a file sync lasts 4 hours, most of the time comparing the remote target... (300.000 folders)

we would really appreciate a solution...

Are you backing up / replicating form source (local) to target (remote) ? If positive, we have a no-rescan target beta for you to try if you want. thanks

No, I'm synchronizing.

I think a (local) VV database on the remote machine would be the only solution....
