SQL server process architecture

Hi,

Is 'sqlserver.exe' the only windows process does everything for that
instance of the database?

Please explain in details the SQL server process architecture.

Thanks

The architecture of SQL Server and its process models can be best
understood by having a glance at INSIDE SQL SERVER 2000 from MS PRESS.

Trust me, there's a lot to learn from this book!

Depends on what you mean with everything...

SQL Agent is a job scheduler. But it is really just another client. If
you have Analysis Services, Reporting Services etc, they are also separate.

But when it comes to running SQL queries, sqlserver.exe is the one
and only yes.
Please explain in details the SQL server process architecture.


Books Online is a good way to start, there are some introductory
sections on architecture. See below for link.

Is it the listener process, or some other Oracle process. Also, on a UNIX system, when you do "ps -ef" to see your processes, the PPID points back to a process named "init". Why does the PPID not point to some other process like, for example, the listener, or PMON, or whoever spawned it. thanks, Mike

Hello, What is the best way to stop a remoting server (Singleton SAO) that has been started with RemotingConfiguration.Configure(). For sure, I want to do this without quitting the application :-) In fact, at a given time based on an internal event, I would like to stop the remoting functionality within my process. Many thanks,
