SQL Server and SODA
|
|
Simply put, a SODA uses the database server as a provider of services in a Service Oriented Architecture or SOA. If you think about it, this makes perfect sense. I can't count the number of services that I've created that are really nothing more than wrappers around stored-procedure calls. For example, a customer Web Service might provide, among other things, a "CustomerList" method and a "GetCustomer" method. Both of these methods would typically be implemented via calls to stored procedures defined in a SQL Server database. In these cases, it might make sense to eliminate the Web server entirely. If SQL Server can host the service as readily, and as securely, as the Web server can then the Web server might not be necessary. This thought started me down the path of understanding and accepting the promise of SODA.
