Abstract:
A method for automatic data synchronization between a source system and a buffer system. The method includes identifying a configurable set of penalties, wherein each penalty defines a number of penalty points associated with a respective one of a plurality of events related to data set stored by the source system. The method also includes, in response detecting one or more events, calculating a total penalty score using the penalty points corresponding to each of the events. The method also includes determining that the total penalty score satisfies a predetermined penalty threshold indicating that the copy of the data set stored on the buffer system is presumed stale and, in response, initiating a data replication operation that updates the copy of data set stored on the buffer system with current data from the data set stored on the source system.
