About Storing and Moving Data in Windchill
Windchill offers several methods to increase the accessibility of data. Following are the key features of these methods:
External File Vaulting
 
File vaulting enables you to store Windchill data outside the Windchill database in logical containers called vaults, each of which can refer to multiple physical memory locations called folders. Multiple hosts can work together in file vaulting to form sites or clusters. You can create rules to upload specified data into vaults and folders. File vaulting reduces the time for uploading and downloading data, and allows Windchill data access control, indexing, and notification policies for Windchill domains, while providing a transparent interface for the user.
Replication
 
Windchill replication allows you to compose rules that copy specified data from file vaults or Windchill databases to more rapidly accessible vaults, known as remote vaults. There are two types of roles that sites can play in replication:
Remote sites (includes the File Server and full-scale sites), which store data for rapid access
A master site, which sends data to remote sites
One site can play both roles.
Security measures ensure that the data on remote sites is genuine. The data sent to remote sites does not include metadata.
