A replication system with methodology for replicating stored procedure calls is described. In one embodiment, for example, in a database system without support for logging stored procedure invocations, a method of the present invention is described for replicating invocation of a stored procedure from a primary database to a replicate database, the method comprises steps of: inserting table data into the primary database for storing information sufficiently characterizing the procedure's invocation to allow its replication, the table data being logged to a log file; reading the log file, for determining changes to apply to the replicate database for replicating the procedure's invocation; and reconstructing the procedure's invocation at the replicate database based on the determined changes.
