I've watched the videos below.

Huron could give many Access apps and developers new opportunities ... if it
works reliably.

The first endpoints that have been implemented by Microsoft are for
Microsoft Office Access and SQL Server Compact. These endpoints allow people
to share Access and SQL Server Compact applications (including the whole
schema with forms, reports, code, views and tables from Access) to the
cloud. The changes that are made by the various parties are then
synchronized back to the local copy.
The following features have been implemented for the endpoint:

.         Share the whole database with the cloud.

.         Share only a subset of tables with the cloud.

.         Subscribe to a database that has been published in the cloud.

.         Share a link to the published database as link. This allows
sharing the location via email.

.         Schedule the synchronization process and enable background
synchronization:

.         Limit the users who are allowed to access the database in the
cloud.

.         Unsubscribe the current copy of the database. The database stays
in the cloud but the current copy is no longer kept in sync.

.         Completely remove the database from the cloud.
