Beginner's Guide to Database and .

NET Integration Topics

1. Indexing
Indexing improves the speed of data retrieval operations on a database table.
Example:
CREATE INDEX idx_customer_name ON Customers(Name);
This creates an index on the 'Name' column of the Customers table.

2. Cascade Deletes
Cascade delete ensures that when a parent record is deleted, related child records are also deleted.
Example:
ALTER TABLE Orders ADD CONSTRAINT fk_customer FOREIGN KEY (CustomerID) REFERENCES Customers(

3. Stored Procedures
Stored procedures are precompiled SQL statements stored in the database.
Example:
CREATE PROCEDURE GetCustomerOrders @CustomerID INT AS
SELECT * FROM Orders WHERE CustomerID = @CustomerID;

4. Functions and Triggers


Functions return a value and can be used in SQL expressions.
Example:
CREATE FUNCTION GetTotal(@price DECIMAL, @qty INT) RETURNS DECIMAL AS BEGIN RETURN @price * @

Triggers are special procedures that run automatically in response to events.


Example:
CREATE TRIGGER trg_after_insert ON Orders AFTER INSERT AS BEGIN PRINT 'Order inserted' END;

5. Transactions
Transactions ensure a sequence of operations are completed successfully or rolled back.
Example:
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
UPDATE Accounts SET Balance = Balance - 100 WHERE ID = 1;
UPDATE Accounts SET Balance = Balance + 100 WHERE ID = 2;
COMMIT;

6. Entity Framework (EF)


EF is an ORM that allows .NET developers to work with a database using .NET objects.
Example:
using (var context = new AppDbContext()) {
var customers = [Link]();
}

7. [Link]
[Link] is a low-level data access technology in .NET.
Example:
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM Customers", conn);
[Link]();
SqlDataReader reader = [Link]();
