The present disclosure relates to a database (DB) synchronization
apparatus of a transmission network system which includes a plurality of
network elements (NEs) and an Element Management System (EMS). Each of
the NEs may include a common memory in which DB information and alarm
state information are rearranged and a sync-related memory of the same
pattern as the common memory for maintaining DB identity with the EMS.
The EMS may include a EMS sync-related memory for storing the DB and the
information of the sync-related memory of the plurality of NEs, and a EMS
common memory corresponding to the common memory (CM) of the NE. A common
memory which reflects database information and the current alarm
information to the NEs, and a sync-related memory which stores data prior
to a T-second period are built on the NEs, and these two memories are
compared in block units to thereafter transmit only modified block data
to the EMS. Accordingly, there is the advantage that since
synchronization is established by the comparison of the memories, an
initialization execution time is very fast, and a real-time data
monitoring and management is convenient.
