We happened to get a requirement – we are supposed to sync the data between salesforce and our database in designated intervals of time.
The synchronization will happen based on some criteria
-
Fetch the salesforce data using “Business id”.
-
Sync it with the database.
I’m looking for options here considering performance ( we can load the salesforce data in batches ) . We are looking into the various resources like
http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api_asynch/index.htm

Can you shed some light on this providing some more useful resources and the direction how to proceed ( we will be using SOAP using Java to interact with salesforce)
You can use Tolerado framework for Java(SOAP) integration with Salesforce. More details here : http://code.google.com/p/tolerado-sfdc-wsc-apis/
