This section focuses on maximizing the benefits of Microsoft SQL Server server-side resources. There are several areas on the server side that relate closely to the overall performance of your application system. Although these topics fall out of the scope of mainstream application development, when used effectively they provide benefits important to the overall performance of the system.
Three of the most versatile and powerful server-side resources are triggers, declarative referential integrity (DRI), and views. Triggers, DRI, and views are often used to reduce the complexity of the client and application. Used effectively, these features can improve the performance of your application.
