[aerogear-dev] Prepping for Data Sync in AeroGear.js

[Sébastien Blanc]

Hi,
Really interesting. I'm also thinking a lot about the data synch process and I'm glad to see that your ideas are pretty much the same as me.
But great challenges to come like dealing multiple edits of the same record by different clients :)
About triggering the synch process we could start a POC with the "online" event on the client side, that could spawn a webwork script taking care of the synch process. 
On the server side, we have to manage a sort of queue maintaining the state of the "dirty" records on which the clients can subscribe (and being noticed by push events , web sockets etc ...) , very exciting stuff to come.
