Hi - I have a rather unreliable host just now - but they offer .net, sql
server and SSL for a reasonable price.
Problem is, the domain is hosted on a shared server - and it keeps going
down apparantly because of code which is less than clean, on some
peoples sites. (ie. not closing connections etc).
I am considering moving to a decicated server - but at this point in
time, cannot afford a full SQL Server licence for it - however, the
dedicated server does offer MSDE. Is it acceptable to go back to using
this from SQL Server - for a currently low hit site - ie. around 500
hits per day.
Does MSDE offer stored procedures (I don't use views or triggers)? Can
I just take a DTC backup/export of my current SQL Server database, and
restore it to the MSDE one?
What would be the cut-off point for using MSDE?
Thanks for any info - also, if anyone knows why UK companies charge so
much more dor dedicated servers, than US companies - I'd be interested.
Thanks, Mark

DiscountASP.Net is cheap for shared hosting. It hosts two sites for me.
Down time during a year has been zero per cent. It provides .Net, classical
ASP and MS-SQL 2000 and some other goodies.
For several years previously, Interland hosted my sites. I have found
DiscountASP to be one-third the cost and three times more reliable and
responsive. Its e-mail hosting is much more reliable and facile.
I am not associated with DiscountASP.

Check out the information here: http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde/default.asp
MSDE is a throttled version of MSSQL - the most significant limitations are
that the database size (meaning data files only, not the log) is limited to
2GB, and there's a workload governor which limits performance when more than
8 connections are active simultaneously (even with many connections, most of
them might be idle most of the time anyway).
Most of the functionality which doesn't exist in MSDE is 'enterprise' stuff
like clustering, indexed views, analysis services etc. (see "Features
Supported by the Editions of SQL Server 2000" in Books Online), so if you're
using 'standard' TSQL functionality, you should be OK. Backup/restore should
work fine, as should DTS, bcp.exe, replication etc.

I'm looking for a simple way of telling (inside a stored procedure) if I'm
currently using MSDE or a full SQL server. Ideally, there is some
pre-defined environment variable that won't cause me too much overhead. The
reason I'm doing this is because my system "rolls over" databases when it
reaches the 2Gb limit with MSDE, but obviously I want to avoid this overhead
if the user installs onto a full SQL server instance.
Thanks

I've got MSDE, SQL Server 7.0, installed. I want to handle an .mdf
developed by someone else so I loaded the .mdf into my /DATA folder.
But, MSDE/ODBC can't see the database. I subsequently discovered that
it was created using SQL Server 2000. Is this the reason that my MSDE
7.0 doesn't see the .mdf? If so, how can I use this database with my
7.0? Backup from 2000, restore to 7.0?
Thanks for any help.

Now, I would like to put it on a server then 5-6 people can share it. I

DB server. Then install the front-end on every client machine. And
clients must be able to connect to the backend remotely. Should I use
something like SQL server/MSDE or just a file server?
If I use MSDE, will I rewrite all the...

I have a client who wishes to upsize an A97 system from Jet backend to
SQL Server 2000.
They have up to 4 users.
Will they need to buy the minimal 5-seat SQL Server product, or would
it be cheaper to upsize the front end to A2K, A2K2 or A2K3 and use the
version of SQL Server provided with that?
The system uses local tables extensively and I would not want to
disturb this.
Enterprise manager would be a requirement.
