Oh, neat...something else interesting that I'd overlooked.
I found a little bit of info here:
OFBizBasicProductionSetup.pdf
"This uses the Entity Synchronization service in the Entity Engine and
the XML import file for this has pretty good comments about what does
what."
This phrase could probably use a reference to the file to make things
a bit clearer for those of us who aren't sure just where that file
might be.
Is the basic production setup guide something that could go into the
confluence server? I have a pretty good grasp of how to get things up
and running on a Debian/Ubuntu system at this point, and wouldn't mind
adding that somewhere official. I guess I should request a docs
account to try and contribute a few things back here and there.
Coming back to the sync stuff, it looks potentially very interesting,
because one of our needs, as we grow, is going to be to keep a local
copy of our data and system so that it's 1) faster, 2) takes load off
the main system, and 3) is still up in case our web connection is
down. The (to me at least) obvious way to do that is to read locally
from a slave database, and send writes back to the main system. What
role might the entitysync stuff play in that process? I think if it
does anything with XML, the database route is going to be more
efficient, but would entitysync allow us to perform both reads and
writes locally and have that go back to the main system?
Thanks,
