    Users can have data filters applied to their subscriptions to limit the data synchronized. I specified synchronization based on the "CITY" field within a subscription for a user, so that he received contact records only for Green Bay. Such filters decrease the time and bandwidth necessary for data synchronization, and can help reduce the size of the local database. Filters also can be used as a security mechanism. They can be configured on a group or subscription basis, affecting all users assigned to that group or subscription.

    You can view logs for replication and synchronization within MDAC, and filter them by time stamp, user name, subscription, database source or other value. MDAC can distribute files and apps to mobile devices automatically, as well as upgrade client-synchronization and DB2 database software without user intervention.
