How does the data in Share-A-space get synchronized with the source data?
When defining the information change process, Share-A-space is using “change triggers”. These typically already exist such as the release of a change notice. The change information itself is propagated either through file transfer or web services. In cases where a changing system is not capable of sending a change trigger a complete set of data can be sent to Share-A-space which then applies its consolidation rule engine in order to build a synchronized data set. This operation also highlights all changes that have occurred to the information.
