Addison-Wesley does it again William G. Ryan With all of my rave reviews of this series, I probably sound like I work in their PR department, but seriously, I don't. Every single book in this series that I've read is just plain great. This book, as well as their ASP.NET 2.0 title are just more examples of the same killer material they are publishing.The book splits itself about 60/40 ADO.NET 2.0 Per se and the XML. However, if you're familiar with ADO.NET, you'll know they are interdependent technologies in .NET (no, I'm not saying you can't use XML without ADO.NET but XML and ADO.NET are so intertwined in .NET,it's hard to talk about ADO without XM. Merging SQL Server and XML under .NET At the simplest level, this book has two parts. The part on ADO.NET refers to further enhancements to accessing MS SQL Server on the .NET platform, as well as sundry bug fixes.The other part concerns how .NET handles XML data management. Here Microsoft has put in a ton of work to handle the latest XML standards, including XML Schema, XPath and XQuery. The entire XML field has been growing rapidly and this book shows how Microsoft is keeping pace. Very reassuring.Also, as one might expect, Microsoft has added custom enhancements to XML. There are two standard XML parsers, DOM and SAX, each with its well kn. "Very Good First Look" according to Scott Golightly. This book attempts to look at the evolving technology of ADO .NET version 2.0 that will ship with SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio .NET 2005. It does a very good job of looking at the major technologies and the uses of each of them.I am looking forward to the ability to use asynchronous database connections and Multiple Active Result Sets (MARS). I can already see where it would make my current applications more performant.I am also looking forward to the ability to store XML in SQL Server 2005 and use the XPath query engine to be able to select out the parts of the XML that I need. With the XML capabili
This book's detailed coverage includes: Clear explanations of Microsoft's data-access intentions and directions--so you'll be ready when .NET 2.0 arrives A brief overview of ObjectSpaces--the exciting new technology for using objects that represent and hold their own dataMajor improvements in bulk loading, batch execution, and paging Support for truly asynchronous connection and command operationsIn-process server-side cursors for programmatic data processing within stored proceduresXML class improvements that enhance standards support, promote integration, and maximize performance Beyond SQLXML 3.0: leveraging XQuery and XML Views in distributed query processingBetter support for storing XML data and integrating relational and XML data management "Yukon's" new XML data type: using SQL Server as an XML document storeWhether or not you're already developing with ADO.NET, this book brings together all the insights, best
He designed the XML APIs in version 1.0 release of System.Xml in the .NET Framework and worked on the design of version 2.0 until the end of 2004. Fortunately, this still allows him to work with developers and the XML APIs in .NET, and to remain passionate about current and emerging XML technologies to integrate data across platforms--XML came, it saw, it integrated.Mark speaks regularly at conferences and can be contacted via his blog at blogs. In this role, he helped define the future direction of XML and data access in the .NET Framework and within SQL Server 2005. Alex Homer is managing director of Stonebroom, Ltd., a software-development, consulting, and training organization. He was formerly lead technical author and reviewer for Wrox Press, specializing in Microsoft Web and database technologies Dave Sussman speaks frequently at Microsoft development conferences and has been writing about ASP since its earliest releases. Mark is now the program manager for the Web Services Enhancements (WSE) product, which enables developers to build advanced, secure, service-oriented applications within Visual Studio, based around the WS-* specifications. msdn/mfussell..
