What is included in Microsoft Sync Framework?
Microsoft Sync Framework includes the following components: • Microsoft Sync Framework SDK – An SDK which allows developers to create custom providers enabling new applications, services, and data stores to participate in the synchronization ecosystem. • Database synchronization providers – A set of ADO.NET-based providers that allow synchronizing relational data using REST style interfaces, enabling data to be taken offline. • File synchronization provider – A ready-to-configure provider capable of representing any Win32-compatible file system (e.g., FAT, NTFS, and removable devices). This provider handles challenges such as change detection on FAT volumes, name-name collision resolution, update-delete conflicts, and the ability to preview a synchronization action. • Web synchronization components – Full support for producing and consuming RSS and ATOM feeds from any synchronization provider. • Metadata storage service – A component that can be used by developers for storing sync meta
