ADO.NET Connected and Disconnected Models

Connected Architecture of ADO.NET

 

The architecture of ADO.net, in which connection must be opened to access the data retrieved from database is called as connected architecture. Connected architecture was built on the classes connection, command, datareader and transaction.

 

Connected architecture is when you constantly make trips to the database for any CRUD (Create, Read, Update and Delete) operation you wish to do. This creates more traffic to the database but is normally much faster as you should be doing smaller transactions.

 

Disconnected Architecture in ADO.NET

 

The architecture of ADO.net in which data retrieved from database can be accessed even when connection to database was closed is called as disconnected architecture. Disconnected architecture of ADO.net was built on classes connection, dataadapter, commandbuilder and dataset and dataview.

 

Disconnected architecture is a method of retrieving a record set from the database and storing it giving you the ability to do many CRUD (Create, Read, Update and Delete) operations on the data in memory, then it can be re-synchronized with the database when reconnecting. A method of using disconnected architecture is using a Dataset.

 

DataReader is Connected Architecture since it keeps the connection open until all rows are fetched one by one

 

DataSet is DisConnected Architecture since all the records are brought at once and there is no need to keep the connection alive

 

Difference between Connected and disconnected architecture


 

Connected

It is connection oriented.

Datareader

Connected methods gives faster performance

connected can hold the data of single table

connected you need to use a read only forward only data reader

Data Reader can't persist the data

It is Read only, we can't update the data.

 

 

Disconnected

It is dis_connection oriented.

DataSet

Disconnected get low in speed and performance.

disconnected can hold multiple tables of data

disconnected you cannot

Data Set can persist the data

We can update data

 

Example

Create Database ―Student‖

[ID] [int] PRIMARY KEY IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [Name] [varchar](255) NULL,

 

[Age] [int] NULL,

[Address] [varchar](255) NULL

)

 

INSERT INTO Student([Name],[Age],[Address])VALUES('NAME 1','22','PUNE')

INSERT INTO Student([Name],[Age],[Address])VALUES('NAME 2','25','MUMBAI')

INSERT INTO Student([Name],[Age],[Address])VALUES('NAME 3','23','PUNE')

INSERT INTO Student([Name],[Age],[Address])VALUES('NAME 4','21','DELHI')

INSERT INTO Student([Name],[Age],[Address])VALUES('NAME 5','22','PUNE')

protected void Connected_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

using (SqlConnection objConn = new SqlConnection(StrConnection))

{

SqlDataReader objDr = objCmd.ExecuteReader(); GridView1.DataSource = objDr; GridView1.DataBind();

 

objConn.Close();

}

}

 

protected void Disconnected_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

 

SqlDataAdapter objDa = new SqlDataAdapter(); DataSet objDs = new DataSet();

using (SqlConnection objConn = new SqlConnection(StrConnection))

 

{

 

SqlCommand objCmd = new SqlCommand(StrSQL, objConn); objCmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text; objDa.SelectCommand = objCmd;

 

objDa.Fill(objDs, "Student"); GridView1.DataSource = objDs.Tables[0]; GridView1.DataBind();

 

}
