PASS Community Summit 2008: Program Sessions (Application Development)

SQL Server Compact Edition is a small footprint embedded database targeting client applications ranging from mobile devices to the desktop. With support for synchronizing data to a SQL Server backend, it supports building a wide range of data-aware client applications which leverage their periodic connectivity to the backend data source. This talk focuses on the capabilities of the SQL Compact database engine, its programming model and synchronization capabilities. It also differentiates SQL Compact from the SQL Server Express edition and talks about the appropriate situations when to use one versus another. It also talks about considerations for SQL Server DBAs in terms of configuring and managing replication of SQL Server data to SQL Compact and the various development and administration tools available for this purpose.
