Asynchronous procedure delivery allows you to execute SQL stored procedures that are designated for replication at primary or replicate databases. Because these stored procedures are marked for replication using the sp_setreplicate or sp_setrepproc system procedures, they are called replicated stored procedures.
To satisfy the requirements of distributed applications, Replication Server provides two types of asynchronous stored procedure delivery: applied stored procedures and request stored procedures. Each type is described in this appendix.
