Work through a prototype applicationLook at how we can leverage new features of SQL Server 2008 to support our scenario
Design and implement storageConsume data using .NETImplement nonfunctional concerns such as
Data AuditingCompressionSecure Storage e.g. EncryptionManagement
End user experience will be a WPF application written in .NET 3.5
Need to store Photos (binary data) with EXIF data and spatial dataIdeally consume data as native .NET objectsWe are concerned with effective storage of the data and also security of the dataInterested in building a simple solution that will be easily managed
Need to deal withlarge photos
Query and bindPhoto data
Allow SpatialQuerying
New data types and T-SQL capabilities
Use FILESTREAM for binary dataData accessible via record set or file API’sAllows for > 2GB blobs
New DATE and TIME data typesdate, time, datetime2, datetimeoffset
Use Filtered Indexes to improve query performance and lower storage and maintenance costs
New MERGE statementConditional insert/updateSynchronization of tables
Native Encryption and Compression
More efficiently store our dataUse native data compressionBACKUP compression available on Enterprise Edition
Securely store our dataUse transparent data encryptionBetter support for managing keys in 2008
ADO.NET Entity Framework
Use ADO.NET Entities to rationalize our data and simplify development
Object Relational MappingLeverage LINQ for queryingIntegrated Designer for Visual Studio 2008
Think in terms of the “conceptual model”
Solution data scope may extend wider than just a single database
New data types and spatial functions
Store your SPATIAL data in SQL Server
Implemented against OGC standards2 new data types: geography and geometryNatively store and index
Leverage queryingFunctions available on the managed data types
New native support
Events can be audited as either Server Audits or Database AuditsEvents can be logged to application log, security log or local fileVery extensive set of facets available for auditing
New management capabilities
Work with your administrators to use the new Resource Governor to good effectSQL can now be managed using PowerShell and so can your applicationsLook at leveraging the new SQL cmdlets and providers for management, or build your own!
Your data, any place, any timeNew data types, including SPATIALNative encryption, compression and auditing capabilitiesLarge binary data now handled very effectivelyManagement is simplified
