Looking at the SQL Server DMF APIs
The SQL Distributed Management Framework is a framework of objects, services, and components used to manage Microsoft SQL Server 2000 It is made up of a few APIs that you can use to accomplish tasks in your applications
You can see how these APIs are used in Figure 7.3
Figure 7.3 Under the covers, the SQL-DMO objects are being used to perform the
requested tasks
Following is a brief description of each of the APIs We will be using the last two directly
in the rest of this chapter
• SQL-NS SQL Namespace provides a way to actually call the Enterprise Managers dialog boxes and User Interface SQL Namespace uses the other APIs listed
Trang 2• SQL-DMO SQL Distributed Management Objects give you access to the various
objects within SQL Server, as well as some of the tasks that can be performed using the Enterprise Manager, so that you can perform them within your own application
• SQL-DTS SQL Data Transformation Services allows you to create transformation packages and tasks, much like you would by using the DTS user interface
