20. API for provisioning Web SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) Basically available, but will have obviously some restrictions e.g. no sp_configure Standard Query Tools

21. Uses regular SQL security model Authenticate logins, map to users and roles Authorize users and roles to SQL objects Limited to standard SQL Auth logins Username + password Future AD Federation (Geneva) Windows Live ID Encryption TDS supports SSL No database encryption at all in V1 Transparent Database Encrytion Encryption Functions

22. Scalability and/or consistency? ACID ( Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) Write n nodes on Commit Read from the max n nodes BASE Basically available, soft state, eventually consistent Write n nodes on Commit synchronize more nodes later Read on more than the n nodes SDS = (a very) ACID model Writes on 3 nodes on Commit Reads form 1 node

23. Scale Performance SDS fabric can switch the primary node for a database to a less busy node SDS may throttle your session if it takes too much resources BYOP (bring your own partitioning) PYON (Pay for your own physical node(s)) Scale Size of Database Current offering is targeted at departmental databases BYOP (bring your own partitioning)

24. Clients connect directly to a database Cannot hop across DBs Any database client library for SQL Server can be also used for SDS ODBC, OLE DB, ADO.NET Provider for SQL Server ADO.NET Entity Framework ADO.NET Data Services (Astoria) LINQ to SQL PHP native SQL Client …

25. Cloud SDS Database TDS + TSQL Model Windows Azure Compute REST (Astoria) ADO.Net* + EF Browser HTTP Application SQL Client * TDS * Client access enabled using TDS for ODBC, ADO.Net, OLEDB, PHP-SQL, Ruby, … Data Center Web Srv SQL Client * HTTP+REST Application REST Client * Web App SQL Client * HTTP+SOAP Application SOAP Client *

26. “Code far” scenario TDS is not designed for high latency networks Recommendation Batch SQL statements Use Functions/ Stored Procedures Table value in parameters are very handy
