gtechnology Posted May 13, 2006 Posted May 13, 2006 ADO.NET is a web-enabled database. Likewise is sql also a web-enabled database?
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted May 13, 2006 Posted May 13, 2006 SQL is a language. The database engines themselves, such as MySQL and PostgreSQL, use SQL as their interface and are web-enabled.
softdragonz Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 ADO.NET is a web-enabled database. ADO.NET is actually a data - access model. It is used to access data from various databases ( or datasources to be general ) and provide them to .NET Applications. SQL is universally accepted language for accessing data using queries. Any new database model that doesen't prescribe to SQL will have to become obsolete. By the way, what database is SFN using? ( Is it MySQL? )
Cap'n Refsmmat Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 SFN is using MySQL, as that is the only engine that vBulletin supports.
Dave Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 Not a lot of databases adhere strictly to SQL any longer; MySQL has numerous extensions to the language (for example, GROUP_CONCAT is extremely useful).
