Database Types

Synthesis desktop applications offer three types of databases for storing projects and analysis data. The type of database you choose will depend on the requirements of your organization.

  Standard repositories (*.rsr11) are basic database files for single- or multi-user environments. Implementation of a database server is not required; however, there are limits on the amount of data and the number of simultaneous users.

  Synthesis files (*.rsf11) are similar to standard repositories except that they can only be used by one person at a time, and changes are not saved until you choose File > Save or Save As. This type of database is therefore best for individual users who are working alone in a single Synthesis desktop application and prefer to be able to close a file without saving changes.

  Enterprise repositories require implementation and support of Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server, but they are a more robust platform that can store much more analysis information in the same database and support access by many more simultaneous users. Synthesis applications are compatible with Microsoft SQL Server 2008 or later and Oracle 10g or later (including the free Express editions of all of these). They can be accessed via an enterprise repository connection file with the extension *.rserp.
