Data caching is initial loading (or filling) the consolidated database (CDB, or Unwired Server cache) with enterprise information system (EIS) data, then continuing to refresh the consolidated database with changes from the EIS or mobile device on an ongoing basis.
Since continual synchronization of the data between the EIS and device puts a load on the EIS, Unwired Platform provides several options for loading and refreshing the data cache.
Options include narrowing the EIS data search so that only specific data is retrieved, identifying effective policies for handling data updates once operations are performed, scheduling periodic updates to occur when system usage is low, updating only changed data in the consolidated database, and so forth.
You can use multiple options to load and refresh the right data at the right time, and to deliver the smallest, most focused payload to the mobile device.
