Technologies are described for performing synchronization within a database environment. A source host stores multiple database tables and a replica host stores copies of the multiple database tables. During synchronization, replication log replay is blocked at the replica node, and a multithreaded process locks the multiple database tables of the source hosts, reactivates replication log generation for each of the multiple database tables, and then unlocks the database tables. A synchronization timestamp is acquired and used to synchronize the multiple database tables with the copies of the multiple database tables. After synchronization, replication log replay is reactivated at the replica host for the copies of the multiple database tables.
