About Distributed Data Synchronization
Distributed data synchronization maintains the integrity of shared state and session information across multiple Netscape Application Servers. This is crucial for partitioned and distributed applications that are hosted on multiple Netscape Application Servers.

In most enterprises, several Netscape Application Servers support one or more distributed Internet or Intranet applications. For such distributed applications to run successfully, each server must have access to the pertinent information for that application, such as state and session information.

Support for this distribution of information is provided through a system-level distributed data synchronization service that is built into the Netscape Application Server.
