Building the Database
.NET Integration Choices
 Choice of where to run logic
 Database, for logic that runs close to data
 Mid-tier, for logic that scales out
 Symmetric programming model
 Leverage skills middle tier & server
 Choice of programming language
 C#, VB.NET, & Managed C++, for a safe, modern
execution environment
 T-SQL continues to be supported & enhanced
 Remains good choice for data-intensive procedures
 Safe extended stored proc (xp) replacement
The Developer Experience
VB, C#
VS 2005
Project
Build
Runtime
hosted by SQL
(in-proc)
Assembly:
“taxlib.dll”
SQL Data Definition:
create assembly …
create function …
create procedure …
create trigger …
create type …
SQL Server
SQL Queries:
select sum(tax(sal,state))
from Employee
where county = 'King'
Managing Assemblies
 Loaded and stored inside SQL Server
 Cataloged with CREATE ASSEMBLY
 Dropped with DROP ASSEMBLY
 Collated as sets of files
 Assembly, References, PDB, source files
 Three Permission Sets
 Safe - compute, access local data
 External - files, registry, network, web services
 Unsafe – full trust, unmanaged Code
