SQL Server Yukon - Why put logic into the database?

Thursday, March 18, 2004

At last, someone from Microsoft who is brave enough to suggest that putting the business logic in the database may be a good option in some scenarios.

The idea that all the work MS is putting in Yukon/CLR integration is just to write UDTs and UDFs, or 'things that cannot be written in T-SQL', like encyrption, does not make a lot of sense.

While I agree with you that that it's a good thing to see it written about, I'm not going to rush to do it. Let see how things actually pan out first in terms of sustainability, patterns and practices before we put all of our eggs in one basket, ok?

I think if there is a Yukon MSDE version, it will replace a whole class of Windwos services I have created in the past to do things like monitor the network, run updates, etc.

Agree. Sometimes it makes sense to do so.
