I am not a database experts but part of the project I am currently interested in accepting requires to do a DB replication.

The system will have many outlets... says Site A, Site B, Site C, etc.. All sites will have a local DB, but only one of the site (says Site A) DB will be a central DB..

Other sites will push their data to Site A once a day (through intranet)....and it's only one way replication.. i.e. Site B does not need to receive data/update/etc from Site A or Site C... so basically Site A will be a hub and other sites will be client to Site A and they only need to push their data to Site A....

What kind of MS SQL Server edition for each of the sites (assuming that the size of the db is not so big - 10GB will be enough) I am thinking to use MS SQL 2008 R2.

Also, What kind of replication does it require? Merge-replication?

from my understanding so far, I need

• Site A: MS SQL Standard (or Enterprise)
• Site B, C, etc.: MS SQL Express
