Abstract
A method, device, and program product are provided for inter-site database replication. A replicating server tracks other servers that it needs to replicate with and the sites where the other servers are located. In response to an indication to replicate, the replicating server determines whether each of the other servers is at the same location as the replicating server or a different location from the replicating server. The replicating server replicates with each of the other servers at the same site as the replicating server, and the replicating server replicates with only one of the servers at each different site. The replicated server at each different site replicates with the other servers at the site of the replicated server.
