Windows Phone 7.5( Mango) support SQL CE

Windows Phone 7.5( Mango) suporta SQL CE(SQL Compact Edition). Acest feature era de mult timp asteptat. Acuma sa vedem cum se foloseste.
Baza de date poate sa fie pusa in doua locatii:
  1. isolated storage
  2. installation folder
In functie de locatie si de parametrii, stringul de conexiune poate sa aibe urmatoarea forma:
  • Data Source = 'isostore:/MyDB.sdf; - cand baza de date este in isolated storage
  • Data Source = 'isostore:/MyDB.sdf';Password='1234'; - cand baza de date este in folderul unde aplicatia a fost instalata si este encriptata cu parola 1234
La stringul de conexiue putem sa setam si alte valori precum culture-ul( "Culture Identifier") si daca este case sensitive( "Case Sensitive").
Trebuie sa tinem cont ca avem cateva limitari pe Mango cand vrem sa folosim SQL CE:
  • fisierele sdf sunt stocate si deschise din isolation storage
  • daca dorim un mecanism de ORM este nevoie sa folosim LINQ2SQL
  • T-SQL queries nu este suportat( nu putem sa avem tranzactii)
  • o referinta la System.Data.Linq trebuie adaugata
  • pentru definierea modelului in acest moment avem doua optiuni SQLMetal pentru Windows Phone Mango sau code-first. By default nu avem un tool grafic pentru definirea acestor mapari.
  • formatul la string-ul de conexiune este unul specific
Versiune de SQL CE care este suportata este SQL CE 4.0. Se poate lucra direct cu EF 4.1.
Saptamana urmatoare o sa revin cu un exemplu intreg.

Windows Docker Containers can make WIN32 API calls, use COM and ASP.NET WebForms

After the last post , I received two interesting questions related to Docker and Windows. People were interested if we do Win32 API calls from a Docker container and if there is support for COM. WIN32 Support To test calls to WIN32 API, let’s try to populate SYSTEM_INFO class. [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] public struct SYSTEM_INFO { public uint dwOemId; public uint dwPageSize; public uint lpMinimumApplicationAddress; public uint lpMaximumApplicationAddress; public uint dwActiveProcessorMask; public uint dwNumberOfProcessors; public uint dwProcessorType; public uint dwAllocationGranularity; public uint dwProcessorLevel; public uint dwProcessorRevision; } ... [DllImport("kernel32")] static extern void GetSystemInfo(ref SYSTEM_INFO pSI); ... SYSTEM_INFO pSI = new SYSTEM_INFO(...

How to audit an Azure Cosmos DB

In this post, we will talk about how we can audit an Azure Cosmos DB database. Before jumping into the problem let us define the business requirement: As an Administrator I want to be able to audit all changes that were done to specific collection inside my Azure Cosmos DB. The requirement is simple, but can be a little tricky to implement fully. First of all when you are using Azure Cosmos DB or any other storage solution there are 99% odds that you’ll have more than one system that writes data to it. This means that you have or not have control on the systems that are doing any create/update/delete operations. Solution 1: Diagnostic Logs Cosmos DB allows us activate diagnostics logs and stream the output a storage account for achieving to other systems like Event Hub or Log Analytics. This would allow us to have information related to who, when, what, response code and how the access operation to our Cosmos DB was done. Beside this there is a field that specifies what was th...

Cloud Myths: Cloud is Cheaper (Pill 1 of 5 / Cloud Pills)

Cloud Myths: Cloud is Cheaper (Pill 1 of 5 / Cloud Pills) The idea that moving to the cloud reduces the costs is a common misconception. The cloud infrastructure provides flexibility, scalability, and better CAPEX, but it does not guarantee lower costs without proper optimisation and management of the cloud services and infrastructure. Idle and unused resources, overprovisioning, oversize databases, and unnecessary data transfer can increase running costs. The regional pricing mode, multi-cloud complexity, and cost variety add extra complexity to the cost function. Cloud adoption without a cost governance strategy can result in unexpected expenses. Improper usage, combined with a pay-as-you-go model, can result in a nightmare for business stakeholders who cannot track and manage the monthly costs. Cloud-native services such as AI services, managed databases, and analytics platforms are powerful, provide out-of-the-shelve capabilities, and increase business agility and innovation. H...
