What is a user?

A user is defined as someone who needs to synchronize data with an enterprise server. The user uses a ¸ðºô µð¹ÙÀ̽º capable of communicating with the DB2 Everyplace Sync Server to replicate data to and from an enterprise system. When a user requests synchronization, the user ID and password are authenticated against the °ü¸® Á¦¾î µ¥ÀÌÅͺ£À̽º. The Sync Server determines if the user is defined in the control database and, if so, to what group the user belongs. Data synchronization fails if the user is not assigned to a group.

Users form groups, which are collections of users who have similar needs for data access and synchronization. Organizing users into groups helps you minimize the effort required to deliver synchronization services to many users in a uniform way.
