John Papa - November 2005- Data Points: The Enterprise Library Data Access Application Block, Part 3
E nterprise applications can have a wide variety of data update requirements. Sometimes you need to save multiple rows of changes at once within a single transaction. Other times, the user must be allowed to enter multiple rows of data, send them to the database in a batch; and if a row or two fails, only the rows that succeeded should be committed and remain committed.
John Papa - October 2005- Data Points: The Enterprise Library Data Access Application Block, Part 2
Last month I explored the foundation of the Enterprise Library Data Access Application Block (DAAB) including how it all fits into an architecture (see Data Points: The Enterprise Library Data Access Application Block, Part 1).
John Papa - August 2005- Data Points: The Enterprise Library Data Access Application Block, Part 1

Every day a developer somewhere needs to write code to iterate through SQL Server™ system objects, query and update tables in linked servers, handle optimistic concurrency, and retrieve column and stored procedure metadata.
John Papa - November 2004- Data Points: Handling Data Concurrency Using ADO.NET, Part 2
Enterprise development has been moving towards a discon-nected model in recent years and ADO. NET development is no exception. While the disconnected model of the ADO. NET DataSet offers great flexibility, that adaptability also means looser control over data updates than you get with a connected data access model.
John Papa - October 2004- Data Points: Handling Data Concurrency Using ADO.NET
One of the key features of the ADO. NET DataSet is that it can be a self-contained and disconnected data store. It can contain the schema and data from several rowsets in DataTable objects as well as information about how to relate the DataTable objects—all in memory.
John Papa - September 2004- Data Points: Migrating from ADO to ADO.NET, Part 2
As you move forward with your use of ADO. NET, you'll need to know how to approach situations that you previously learned to handle in ADO and now have to tackle with ADO. NET. Just as n-tiered solutions developed using Visual Basic®, C++, and ASP often rely on ADO for their data access needs, Windows® Forms, Web Forms, and Web services rely on ADO.
John Papa - August 2004- Data Points: Migrating from ADO to ADO.NET

John Papa - June 2003- Data Points: Techniques for Managing Rowset Paging
There are a number of ways to handle paging in Web applications. This month I'll examine several paging techniques and weigh their pros and cons. John Papa discusses how to manage paging and caching issues through the lower tiers of an n-tiered architecture, including how to make SQL Server manage the paging on your app's behalf.
John Papa - May 2003- Data Points: Expressions in ADO.NET
Managing relations in a database became a whole lot easier with ADO. NET. Instead of returning a single rowset to a data store, you can return a series of rowsets and relate them within a DataSet. There are numerous advantages to using related DataTables in ADO.
John Papa - January 2003- Data Points: DataRelations in ADO.NET
One of the biggest differences between traditional ADO and ADO. NET is that the rowsets stored within ADO. NET can be truly relational. For example, a DataSet can store one DataTable containing customers and another DataTable containing the customers' orders.

Acquiring a certificate, installing it, and configuring IIS for SSL are outlined in a step-by-step process.
John Papa - April 2001- Taming the Stateless Beast: Managing Session State Across Servers on a Web Farm
Running a Web farm means managing session state across servers. Since session state can't be shared across a Web farm with Internet Information Services 5.0, a custom solution is required. One such solution using a tool called the session manager is described here. The article begins with a description of the SQL Server database used to store state information, the stored procedures used to update it, and the retrieval of session data. ASP code drives the session manager tool and the COM and COM+ components that run the stored procedures.
