Greetings. I'm looking for a "distributed" database. (I'm not sure if
distributed is the correct terminology though).

My problem is this; I have a client application which once in a while
needs to sync with a central database. (And of course the client
-databases might be updated locally etc).

Are there any other resources you can recommend me? (I have basic RDMS
knowledge (MySQL)).

Google and Wikipedia are your friends.

If you have already tried this, then you should say so, so that we don't
waste our time, and yours, going over ground you have already covered.
