What is database replicaion? What are the different types
of replication you can set up in SQL Server?

Answer Posted / sivakumar

Replication
Replication is the process of copying/moving data between
databases on the same or different servers.
SQL Server upports the following types of replication
scenarios:

Snapshot replication:
The Publisher sends a snapshot of the published data to
Subscribers at scheduled intervals.

Transactional replication:
The Publisher streams transactions to the Subscribers after
they receive an initial snapshot of the published data.

Merge replication:
The Publisher and Subscribers can update the published data
independently after the Subscribers receive an initial
snapshot of the published data. Changes are merged
periodically. Microsoft SQL Server Mobile Edition can only
subscribe to merge publications.
