Yes, it is odd that KB search didn't find that article. Regardless though, I don't think that article helps with this problem, in as much as I understand it. Based on what has been said so far it seems the OP wants to design a reliable client/server application to run across an unreliable network. The referenced article talks about connecting a batch-mode client to a local database via TCP. It doesn't discuss anything like client-side caching.
