See the documentation for a detailed description of each data synchronization pattern:

• Read-Only Data

  Use this synchronization pattern when your users only need to read data while the app is offline and the amount of data to synchronize is small.

• Read-Only Data Optimized

  Use this synchronization pattern when your users only need to read data while the app is offline and there are large amounts of data to synchronize.

• Read/Write Data Last Write Wins

  Use this synchronization pattern when it is not likely for more than one user to change the same data while the app is offline.

• Read/Write Data With Conflict Detection

  Use this synchronization pattern when for advanced scenarios where more than one user will change the same data while the app is offline.

• Read/Write Data One-to-Many

  This data synchronization pattern is recommended for mobile apps with entities that follow a one-to-many relationship and where it is not likely for multiple end-users to change the same data while the apps are offline.
