To learn any technology and move to a more advanced level, it is very important to understand the fundamentals of the subject first. Today, we will be talking about something which has been quite introduced a long time ago but not properly explored when it comes to the isolation level. Snapshot Isolation was introduced in SQL Server in 2005. However, the reality is that there are still many software shops which are using the SQL Server 2000, and therefore cannot be able to maintain the Snapshot Isolatio... (more)

Today one of my colleague asked that how we can use transactions with the LINQ-to-SQL Classes when we use more then one entities updated at same time. It was a good question. Here are the my answer for that.For ASP.NET 2.0  or higher version have a new class called TransactionScope which can be used to manage transaction with the LINQ. Let’s take a simple scenario we are having a shopping cart application in which we are storing details or particular order placed into the database using LINQ-to-SQL. The... (more)

In recent SQL Training I was asked, how can one figure out what was the last SQL Statement executed in sessions. The query for this is very simple. It uses two DMVs and created following quick script for the same. SELECT session_id, TEXT FROM sys.dmexecconnections CROSS APPLY sys.dmexecsqltext(mostrecentsqlhandle) AS ST While working with DMVs if you ever find any DMV has column with name sqlhandle you can right away join that DMV with another DMV sys.dmexecsqltext and can get the tex...

This article is a follow up one I wrote last week entitled “The NoSQL Movement, LINQ, and MongoDB - Oh My!”. In that article I introduced the NoSQL movement, MongoDB, and showed you how to program against it in .NET using LINQ and NoRM. I highlighted two cornerstone reasons why you might ditch your SQL Server for the NoSQL world of MongoDB. Those were 1. Ease-of-use and deployment 2. Performance For ease-of-use, you’ll have to w...

Maybe you’ve heard people talking about ditching their SQL Servers and other RDBMS entirely. There is a movement out in the software development world called the "No SQL" movement and it’s taking the web application world by storm. “Insanity!” you may cry, “for where will people put their data if not in a database? Flat files? Tell me we aren’t we going back to flat files.” No, but in the relational model, something does has to give. The N... (more)

It is interesting how sometimes the documentation of simple concepts is not available online. I had received email from one of the reader where he has asked how to create Primary key with a specific name when creating the table itself. He said, he knows the method where he can create the table and then apply the primary key with specific name. The attached code was as follows: (more)
