Table Replication Definition Elimination

If you use database replication definition and subscription in a heterogeneous environment, you do not need to use a table replication definition.

In earlier releases, a table replication definition was required for each table in a heterogeneous replication environment. In this kind of environment involving databases with many tables, maintaining all the table replication definitions requires more effort. During DDL replication, if the DDL changes the table definition without coordinating the changes with the table replication definition, the data might become inconsistent. To avoid data inconsistency and to eliminate the need to use table replication definition for each table, you can now use database replication definition and subscription.
