Hi, I am trying to write a script that downloads my web server statistics that is stored in an online MS SQL Database to a local database for further processing and then deletes the downloaded records (to save space online). How do I do this safely so that I don't lose any records due to network error - is there some kind of a distibuted transaction coordinator that I can use in ruby?
