What is Rsync ?

rsync is an open source tool that provides fast incremental file transfer. It was originally designed to replace rcp, the vulnerable old Unix remote copy program. Its sophisticated method of synchronizing and transferring files and directories, has made Rsync one of the most popular tools for mirroring Web sites. Rsync transfers only the changes in files, using the devilishly clever rsync algorithm. It calculates difference without needing both files to be present.

In comparison to the traditional remote backup methods, Rsync improves efficiency in the maximum. By synchronizing only those files that have changed since the last backup, results in large bandwidth savings.

We can effectively deploy Rsync on load balanced corporate servers and synchronize data amongst all the database and http servers. Many leading corporate websites use the rsync utility to ensure a high reliability of data transfer between 2 or more servers.
