Abstract
An extensible and automatically replicating server farm configuration management infrastructure is provided. A centralized configuration database stores all configuration data for the server farm. New configuration data can be added to the configuration database by extending a configuration object model without knowing or changing the schema of the configuration database. A synchronization mechanism is provided for each server in the server farm to automatically keep configuration data in the server farm synchronized across multiple servers in the server farm.
