Abstract
One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for providing efficient synchronized data access. A request to access data on a first data provider is received. The requested data on the first data provider is synchronized with a second data provider, such that the first and second data providers respectively comprise a same version of the requested data. A provider score can respectively be determined for the first data provider and for the second data provider, where the provider score utilizes heuristic data that may indicate a data access rate and/or a cost of data access, for the respective first data provider and second data provider. The request for data access can be routed to the data provider that comprises a desired provider score, where a desired provider score may indicate a desired rate of data access and/or cost of data access.
