Microsoft Rave

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Microsoft Rave is an application that shipped with WinFS Beta 1. It allows synchronization of two or more WinFS stores. It supports synchronization in full mesh mode as well as the central hub topology. While synchronizing, Microsoft Rave will determine the changes made to each store since the last sync, and update accordingly. When applying the changes, it also detects if there is any conflict, i.e., the same data has been changed on both stores since the last synchronization. It will either log the conflicting data for later resolution or have it resolved immediately.

Microsoft Rave uses peer-to-peer technology to communicate and transfer data.
