This is looking very good and it could lower the pain of developping mobile apps, especially for independent studios. Looking forward to learn more about the details of data syncing.
- astigsen 12y agoData syncing is an obvious need and Realm has actually been designed for that from day one. The entire underlying core is build to seamlessly record changes and coordinate them with a backend. It is not part of the initial launch as we want to nail down the local api's with the community first, but look out for announcements soon.
- jrullmann 12y agoWhat kind of consistency do you expect to provide with this future syncing feature? I assume it will be eventually consistent. Is that right? How will conflicts be resolved?
- astigsen 12y agoYes, on mobile sync really only make sense if also works when the device has spotty or no connectivity, so that naturally entails eventual consistency in some form. We are not ready to into details about how our sync solution will work yet, but watch out for some announcements soon.
- orandolabs 12y agoEnduroSync (https://orandolabs.com https://orandolabs.com) does exactly the same thing, and it already has syncing. It's available for iOS and Android now, with more platform support coming.
