=============== THE LATEST NEWS =============== A New Solution to an Old State Storage Problem (3/27/2006) http://aspwire.com/nl?10565 [article] State management in Web applications is a contentious issue. Should you store user data per session or should you persist it across sessions? You can easily store information temporarily while someone navigates your site by using session state. That's typically an in-memory data store indexed by a unique session key assigned to each new user and that lasts only for the duration of the "session" with the client. Storing information across sessions is typically done by building your own back-end data store indexed by some user identifier (typically obtained after a user logs onto the site).

Displaying the Sizes of Your SQL Server's Database's Tables (3/29/2006) http://aspwire.com/nl?10578 [article] In my day-to-day work as a writer, trainer, and consultant, I usually wear the ASP.NET developer hat, focusing on designing the middle-tier and front-end portions of ASP.NET applications with my exposure to the database usually being limited to data modeling and writing queries/stored procedures to access the data. The typical DBA activities - creating indexes, doing consistency checks, backing up the database, and so on - have always been someone else's responsibility. Over the past several months, however, I've been taking a more active role in the DBA side of things for a decent sized database, one with over 200 tables, close to 500 stored procedures, and chewing through a few gigabytes of disk space.
