This is a “it depends” sort of question.
These are my recommendations, your mileage may vary.
Your distributor is on the same system as your publisher – Pull is probably for you
Your Subscribers are a very high transaction count – Push is probably for you
You need to manually copy the subscription over the network to the subscriber and load it up from the local drive – Pull is probably for you
Your distributor is on a separate from the publisher – Push is probably for you
The distributor is on the same server as your subscriber – Either, as the agent will be running on the distributor either way
You have a slow network link – Either, slow networks aren’t overcome with either technique
If you have specific’s you’d like to ask about, post your questions below, or in the ITKE forum.
