Cursors
SQL statements are good for set at a time operations. So it is good for for handling a group of data. But there are scenarios when you want to update a row depending upon a some specific criteria, like loop through the rows and update the row. This time we are using cursors
There are different steps to create cursors
1.Declare
2.Open
3.Fetch

Compiled Query- Improve the performance of Linq to Entity Query

Most of the small or medium IT firms are using the Entity framework for the Data Access layer (DAL). If we write a complex linq to Entity queries performance will always be an issue. But with the Compiled Query Performance can be improved. This below definitions are from MSDN and more details can be found on the MSDN Link that is at the end of this post When you have an application that executes structurally similar queries many times in the Entity Framework, you can frequently increase performance by compiling the query one time and executing it several times with different parameters. For example, an application might have to retrieve all the QuoteRevision for a particular quotelineStatus, the quotelinestatus is specified at runtime. LINQ to Entities supports using compiled queries for this purpose. The compiled query class provides compilation and caching of queries for reuse . Co...

Sql Server Internals - Named Pipes

Named pipes enables clients applications to request a reliable and two way connection between the client application and Sql Server, across a network. A named pipe has a name which follows the UNC naming convention : \\Server\pipe\name The default names pipe for SQL server is : \\Server\pipe\sql\query A named instance would have a named pipe of \\server\pipe\MSSQL$instancename\sql\query Early versions of SQL Server only provided Named Pipes. Named Pipes also allows for impersonation of a clients credentials. The feature is used by SQL server when using Linked Servers. The clients logon credentials are passed across to the Linked Server for authentication. Named Pipes can operate over TCP/IP, NETBEUI or IPX as it indirectly relies on the Common Internet Files Sytems
