Double-Take Share allows for easy, automated data sharing between databases, applications, and platforms. It captures changes made to the source database, transforms the data as needed, and replicates it to the desired target. This eliminates the need for manual data integration and allows businesses to be more productive, profitable, and see an immediate ROI. Double-Take Share supports replication between various database types and platforms, and provides monitoring and alerting to ensure accurate and reliable data sharing.
4. Transform the Way You Do Business
Breaks down barriers between
• Multiple databases
• Incompatible applications
• Disparate platforms
Makes data sharing easy

5. Migration
What is migration really?
• Hardware Upgrades
• P->V, V->P, etc.
• OS Version
• Server Consolidation
• Data Center Move (and to/from
Hosting)
• SAN Migration (to/from or
vendor)
• Ground to Cloud
• Database Vendor
• Database Version
• OS Vendor
• Application Version
• Reorg While Active
6. Modernization
• Upgrading database version
• Upgrading application version
Conversion
• Moving data to new database or application
• Switch to new operating system
Consolidation
• Reducing # of database platforms
• Standardizing on fewer vendors
• Reducing number of DBs by
consolidating into a centralized database,
data mart or data warehouse

11. MonCon
The monitoring and control interface is one of
several ways to monitor the status of replication in
real time. WebMonCon that allows monitoring
through a web browser.
EDMM
All data replication rules including data
mappings and data manipulations are stored
internally using a scripting language in an
Enterprise Data Movement Model.

12. Data is captured and shared as it changes, immediately and quickly
replicated to other databases as specified
Only changed data is transferred, so efficient
Automatically handles the extraction, transformation (if any) and load to
target database (no intervention or manual scripting)
Ensures write order consistency and guaranteed delivery

Did you know?
Double-Take Share can leverage published Log or Journal
standards to identify and capture the change before
copying to the Double-Take Share Queue
The Double-Take Share Queue ensures that data integrity is
maintained and zero data loss occurs in the event of a
dropped connection during file transmission

14. Guarantees Information Accuracy
Ensures ongoing integrity
> Changes collected in queue on
source
> Moved to target only after
committed on source
> Ensures write-order-
consistency retained
> Queues retained until
successfully applied
> No database table locking
• Ensures failure integrity
> Automatically detects
communications errors
> Alerts administrator
> Automatically recovers the
connection and processes
> No data is lost

17. Manipulating Data
Target Column
Expressions
Fast way to specify simple
and medium complexity
data manipulations
Join Tables
It’s possible to join tables
together and build a new table on
the target.
Replication Scripting Language (RSL)
All data manipulations stored in a easy to read
scripting language, which can be exported,
edited and imported for advanced
manipulations by power users. Also a big time
saver in sophisticated enterprise environments
with lots of tables.
