The Ottawa .NET Community Presents
Designing Highly Concurrent SQL Server Database Applications
The Ottawa .NET Community is pleased to invite you to another one of its’ stellar presentations on developing better applications. Adam Machanic is coming in from Boston (via Montreal’s “Groupe D’Usagers Visual Studio”) to show us the ins & outs of designing highly concurrent SQL Server database applications. If you’re in the business of developing scalable applications with SQL Server then you will want to attend this event.
Designing Highly Concurrent SQL Server Database Applications
Our jobs as developers would be so much easier if we didn't have to worry about anyone using the software we created—it's amazing how well an application can scale with zero concurrent users. But fortunately for our careers (and unfortunately for our stress levels), we often have to deal with the opposite problem: Lots of users, all trying to manipulate the same data at the same time. In this session we will start with a discussion of the various types of concurrency issues you might encounter in different scenarios, and then move on to an analysis of techniques for solving the problems that concurrency brings to the table. We will look at both the tools SQL Server provides natively (such as isolation level settings), as well as database and application design strategies that can help to maximize the user experience in highly concurrent applications.
