Any Good Examples of Mobile Sync Framework Solutions

Question

We are investigating using the Microsoft Mobile Sync Framework and I would like to put together a quick prototype. I am trying to pitch Mobile Sync Framework ofer another sync provider. I have zero experience with it so far, so I am looking for good examples of how to use it to sync backend relational database to SQL Server Compact database to enable working in an offline scenario. It would be very helpful to see a sample syncing solution with Oracle as the back end, but Sql Server should be fine to get an understanding.

Thanks, Tom

Answer 1

see here: Sync Framework Resources
Hope that thread helps

Answer 2

Have you checked out Oracle Database Lite?

It includes a full sync solution for mobile devices, and is (obviously) compatible with an Oracle back end.

You can download it here:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/database-lite/downloads/index.html

The download includes full documentation and several source code examples.

Answer 3

For an end to end solution for syncing between a mobile device and a server, have a look at the SyncComm project

Also this article from syncguru should give you a head start on writing your own provider for Oracle - it's quite straightforward to plug said provider into SyncComm - but I can if needs be provide further guidance.
