| =========== |
| Replication |
| =========== |
| |
| Replication is an incremental one way process involving two databases |
| (a source and a destination). |
| |
| The aim of replication is that at the end of the process, all active |
| documents in the source database are also in the destination database |
| and all documents that were deleted in the source database are also |
| deleted in the destination database (if they even existed). |
| |
| The replication process only copies the last revision of a document, so all |
| previous revisions that were only in the source database are not copied to the |
| destination database. |
