Data servers manage databases containing primary or replicated data. Clients use them to store and retrieve data and to process queries and transactions. Replication Server maintains replicated data in data servers by logging in as a database user.
Replication Server supports heterogeneous data servers through an open interface. Any system for storing data can be used as a data server if it supports a set of required data operations and transaction processing directives.
See “Non-ASE data server support” for more information on data server requirements.
