Auto Import
Package Auto Import)
Package Auto Import could be
used to maintain consistency
between applications in various
Application Catalogs in
organizations where they are
satisfied with domain security
and have both source and target
Application Catalog databases
(or source directory and target
Application Catalog database)
on an accessible domain.
Replicating
(Subscription and
Publication)
Replication could be used at
large enterprises that want to
maintain a central Application
Catalog, with smaller Application
Catalogs at individual offices
(such as New York, London,
etc.).
This method moves the data
closer to the user (which
improves performance), and
allows the user to subscribe to
only the data that they need
(which makes it easier to work
with).
