My issue is:

DB in HK got 3-5 million records/day. I need to replicate an amount of selective records to Canada, which is supposed to be 1-3 million records/day.

Can someone please advise me some possible solution? Acceptable delay is a few minutes, or even 10-20 minutes in the worst case. Even some 3rd party tools is considerable

My current dbms is sql server 2k8 r2

Sorry if I'm in wrong room
A million thanks to any reply

What's wrong with transactional replication? Have you tested your network latency?

I don't know if with transaction replication, I can replicate only selective rows.
As I know can only replicate on selective columns, not row, I don't want to replicate all rows

Yes you can replicate "selective rows" with transactional replication. Use the filtering option.

Thanks for your information, I'll study how.
I still have one concern is the latency, from my view, it's very hard to get such amount of transaction to be replicated well outside LAN connection, please advise

Well you'll need to test it. Our environment provides the data in near real-time, and we send a huge amount of data through it. We're doing 3000 batch requests per second on the OLTP system, with almost all of it being replicated to our reporting system. Our system is about 60% writes.

Just curious - How did you find out the percent of your writes on a database?

I believe it was with this DMV: sys.dm_io_virtual_file_stats.

We had a PFE from MS on site for a week with us, and he helped us come up with the ratio.
