Real-Time Performance SQDR reliably performs unidirectional or bidirectional replication with latency of under one second. Using log-based change data capture, SQDR ensures currency and maintains accuracy while minimizing the potential for conflicts between source and target databases.

Rapid Deployment Virtually all instances of SQDR are deployed in under 24 hours, saving time and money. SQDR generates baseline copies of source database at a standard speed of 25GB/hour, but that rate can be “supercharged” to reach speeds of 500GB/hour for very large implementations.

Superior Reliability After originally developing SQDR as OEM software for Microsoft, StarQuest’s highly experienced development team further refined SQDR to make it the most robust solution on the market. Unlike other replication software, SQDR reliably runs in the background without costly dedicated engineers, regular rebuilds, or other strains on client IT resources.

Thin-Server Technology SQDR performs replication on an intermediate virtual server to minimize impact on source and destination data stores. The virtual server also maintains a unified copy of the source and target databases in case of disaster.

Why is SQDR more affordable?

Load-Based Pricing Vs. Core-Based PricingMost replication vendors charge by core, artificially bloating price even though number of cores has limited effect on a vendor’s costs. StarQuest prices SQDR far more fairly by pegging price to the load for a given implementation. This makes SQDR more affordable both upfront and in subsequent years.

No Dedicated EngineersSQDR is the most robust solution on the market and it does not require any ongoing engineering to run properly. Most of our competitors require that a dedicated engineer babysit your replication pairings, which adds tens of thousands of dollars to your annual price.

Browser-Based GUISQDR utilizes an intuitive browser-based GUI similar to most modern applications, making setup and customizations easy as can be.

Simple Dashboard For Monitoring PerformanceSQDR’s dashboard makes it easy to check the status of your replication pairings.

Automatic Detection of Schema ChangesSQDR automatically detects schema changes and will prompt the administrator to update the configuration of their implementation to ensure continued accuracy.

ETL FunctionalitySQDR has built-in ETL functionalities that aid in the refactoring of applications and managing platform differences.

Specify Tables, Columns & Rows to ReplicateSQDR lets you specify the tables, columns, and rows to be replicated, ensuring that replication is performed efficiently and that data is shared appropriately.

Disaster ReadinessIf connectivity is lost due to database failure or another disaster scenario, SQDR will store a unified copy of your data on its intermediate server and automatically restart replication as soon as connectivity is restored.

End-to-End SupportStarQuest’s customer support team has extensive knowledge of all supported data stores and can troubleshoot replication pairing end-to-end. We understand that replication almost always involves mission-critical functions and we will ensure that pairings are working properly. This is a crucial difference versus Oracle and IBM, which will leave you half supported in heterogeneous environments.
