Exclusive: Microsoft is about to launch pure relational databases for the cloud

[Csdn latest news in April 30] A few months ago, Microsoft launched the cloud-based SQL data service (SDS), but it was criticized for its lack of strong support for enterprise-level applications. Microsoft is actively promoting a new measure to replace SDS by establishing a pure Relational Data Model running on the cloud computing platform.

Microsoft took this surprise one week before the mix09 meeting in Las Vegas last month. The irony is that the mix08 meeting a year ago, that's exactly when it announced its cloud-based database plan.

According to the survey, most of the criticism for the beta version of SDS focuses on rest and soap web service interfaces. In addition, Roger Jennings found that there may be little scalability for the existing SQL Server, developers have abandoned the reconstruction of T-SQL applications for SDSProgramIdea.

According to the latest plan, Microsoft will launch a cloud-based relational database service. It can be used in the upcoming azure service platform, and can access the tabular data stream (TDS) in SQL Server across protocols ).

New databases support all functions of traditional relational databases, including SQL queries, relational model support, and dynamic storage. In addition, Microsoft also said that it no longer needs rest web service interfaces to implement these functions. This eliminates the network service layer and directly transmits data streams to the SQL server through the cloud. Therefore, Microsoft evaluated it as a developer-driven data migration.CodeProvides greater convenience.

Developers still have great expectations for new products and think that this will bring great convenience to the configuration of existing code in the cloud, which will greatly reduce our workload. Of course, questions about the performance of pure relational databases on cloud computing platforms still exist. Microsoft said the beta version of SDS containing TDS will be available at the end of the year, and the commercial version will be available at the end of the year.
