Currently, I'm working on a MERN Web Application that'll need to communicate with a Microsft SQL Server database on a different server but on the same network.
Data will only be "transferred" from the Mongo database to the MSSQL one based on a user action. I think I can accomplish this by simply transforming the data to transfer into the appropriate format on my Express server and connecting to the MSSQL via the matching API.
On the flip side, data will be transferred from the MSSQL database to the Mongo one when a certain field is updated in a record. I think I can accomplish this with a Trigger, but I'm not exactly sure how.
Do either of these solutions sound reasonable or are there more better/industry standard methods that I should be employing. Any and all help is much appreciated!
