1. A system for optimization of database replication/synchronization, including:

  • a first computer-based device having software thereon with means for associating a first unique identifier with a first database object;

    means for performing a first alteration upon said first database object to provide an altered second database object and associating a second unique identifier with said altered second database object, wherein said first alteration includes a transformation operation comprising compression, expansion, encryption, de-encryption, conversion, and de-conversion;

    means for determining said database objects to be replicated either in altered form or unaltered form using said unique identifiers; and

    means for receiving a replication request for updating data for a third database object from a second computer based device containing a third unique identifier and comparatively equating said third unique identifier to one of said first and second identifiers and for sending an instruction to said second computer based device to perform said first alteration upon said third database object thereon to maintain said database objects in sync and for sending said requested updated data when said second computer lacks means for performing said first alteration.
