Active Server Pages, together with ADO and OLEDB, can bring about this access to a myriad of data stores. Existing data access technologies have concentrated on relational databases, but ADO now brings the benefits of semi-structured data. So not only can you provide fast access to existing stores of data, but you can also access data in a less structured form, such as mail messages, web pages, XML and so on.

Comprising 1,300 pages, the book provides a significant range of material on Microsoft-centered APIs, like ADO and OLE DB, COM+ and RDS, but it's the cross-vendor perspective that makes it even more valuable. For instance, when discussing database administration, you find out how to do it on SQL Server, Oracle, IBM DB2, and MySQL (a popular freeware database package). You also learn how to use database stored procedures and XML on Microsoft, Oracle, and IBM databases.
The real focus of Professional ASP Data Access is on demonstrating some of today's best practices for programming databases with Microsoft tools. This includes building three-tier Web applications that use database and business objects built in VB and/or Visual C++ ATL and COM+ for better scalability on the server with ASPs used to build browser-based front ends. There's also good coverage of beginning and advanced uses of SQL (including an excellent section on joins) and today's popular XML standard for delivering data between tiers. Many chapters look at newer Microsoft database standards, like OLE DB and UDA, plus coverage of SQL Server 2000 advances like data mining, natural language query capabilities, and other features. E-commerce is explained using a sample Web site that includes membership features. Throughout this title, you'll find plenty of screen shots for setting up and using the variety of tools under discussion (including screen shots for non-Microsoft tools).
Professional ASP Data Access will teach beginning to advanced readers databases from the ground up, and get them up to speed on the latest in Microsoft (and non-Microsoft) APIs and standards. --Richard Dragan
Topics covered:
This book is aimed at those existing Web programmers, perhaps just becoming familiar with ASP, who want to take the next step of driving their site from some form of data store whether from a relational database, or from a less-structured form of data.
