To setup replication for a business measures model between the State, Runtime
and Historical database, the following high level tasks need to be performed:
- Generate replication setup scripts. The Schema Generator analyzes
the business measures model for which replication
has to be set up and generates a set of setup files.
- Distribute replication setup scripts. These setup files have to
be manually transferred to the machines hosting the State, Runtime and Historical
databases.
- Execute replication setup scripts. Each one of the setup files
will upon execution create the necessary database objects and configure the
utilities that move the data from one database to another.
Upon successful completion, the replication utilities can be started
and are operational. The following sections provide an in-depth architectural
view and explains some of the fundamental concepts used.
