2 Tier Architecture :- Reporting Service Query
Mar 25, 2008
Hi ,
We are trying to implement a 2 tier architecture for our inbuild SQL 2005 backed online application. We want the SQL Reporting Server Interface --- Reporting service website to sit on Server 'A' and the actual reporting server to sit on Server 'B'.
Can someone suggest or advise us how to proceed with this.
Server 'A' is our application server and has IIS & Application.
Server 'B' is our DB server and has IIS,SQL 2005, Reporting Server,Intergration Service.
All suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
Namit Sethi

I have created an application that I intended to be 3-tier, but I am not sure if I did it properly. I constructed it like this: I created a DLL that contains methods that validate the passed parameters, checks the data against business rules, and issues ADO.NET methods to access the data. The ASP.NET presentation layer uses Object Data Sources to link to these methods. With this architecture I consider the ASP.NET pages to be the presentation layer, the DLL to be the business layer, and the database itself to be the data layer.
Now I am wondering if the standard practice is to have a further division? In this case, there would be a business layer DLL whose only purpose is to validate the parameters passed to it by the presentation layer, and to do business rules checking. There would also be a data layer DLL whose purpose is to accept parameters from the business layer and issue ADO.NET methods to access the database. In this scenario the database itself would be considered part of the data layer, or not considered to be a layer at all.
Either one will work, but I would like to implement the architecture that is most accepted, and allows the easiest maintenance. What is the best practice for designing a 3-tier architecture?

I using Visual Web Designer Express (with Visual Basic), with a SQL Server 2000 database. I have a prototype application running satisfactorily using code that builds queries, but I'm now trying to rebuild the application "properly" using three-tier architecture. I have been following the principles of Scott Mitchell's tutorials. I have created an database .xsd with a table adaptor, and replaced the rather grotty query-building code in the business layer with better code referencing the table adaptor. Thus where the first version had code: -
Dim queryString As String = "SELECT * FROM NZGDB_User WHERE USRid = '" & Userid & "'" Dim message As String = "" Dim Found As Boolean = False Try Using connection As New SqlConnection(GDB_AppSettings.Connection) Dim command As New SqlCommand(queryString, connection) connection.Open()
Dim reader As SqlDataReader = command.ExecuteReader()
If reader.Read() Then Found = True _USRid = reader("USRid") _USRPassword = reader("USRPassword") _USREmail = reader("USREmail") _USRTitle = reader("USRTitle") _USRName = reader("USRName") _USRRole = reader("USRRole") If IsDBNull(reader("USRAgreedConditions")) = False Then _USRAgreedConditions = reader("USRAgreedConditions") End If End If reader.Close() End Using Catch ex As Exception If Left(Err.Description, 68) = "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server." Then Return "Cannot open database to logon" Else Return Err.Description End If End Try
the new version is much more elegant: -
Dim taUser As New NZGDBTableAdapters.NZGDB_UserTableAdapter()
Dim tbUser As NZGDB.NZGDB_UserDataTable = taUser.GetUserByUserid(userid) If tbUser.Count <> 1 Then ' Anything other than 0 or 1 should be impossible Return "User not found" End If
Dim trUser As NZGDB.NZGDB_UserRow = tbUser(0) _USRid = userid _USRPassword = password _USREmail = trUser.USREmail _USRTitle = trUser.USRTitle _USRName = trUser.USRName _USRRole = trUser.USRRole _USRAgreedConditions = trUser.USRAgreedConditions
However, there is a problem. The database field USRAgreedConditions is a Datetime field that can be null. The new version works perfectly when it is NOT null, but throws an exception: -
System.Data.StrongTypingException was unhandled by user code Message="The value for column 'USRAgreedConditions' in table 'NZGDB_User' is DBNull." Source="App_Code.wt2vzoc1" ....
There is no point in writing: - If Not IsDBNull(trUser.USRAgreedConditions) Then _USRAgreedConditions = trUser.USRAgreedConditions End Ifbecause the exception occurs within the automatically-created code in the data access layer. I tried changing the Nullvalue property of the field USRAgreedConditions in the table adaptor, but the only valid option is (Throw Exception) unless the field is a String. Of course USRAgreedConditions is a Datetime field, so I can't change the property.
It seems that my only options are: -1. To stick with the old query-building code. But this doesn't give me the advantages of a proper 3-tier architecture2. To change the generated code in wt2vzoc. This MUST be a bad idea - surely I should leave this code untouched. Besides, what if the table adaptor has to be regenerated when I change the table design?3. Code a Try block within the business layer: - Try _USRAgreedConditions = trUser.USRAgreedConditions Catch ex As Exception _USRAgreedConditions = Nothing End Try
This seems to work OK, but seems less elegant than the original code in the old version: - If IsDBNull(reader("USRAgreedConditions")) = False Then _USRAgreedConditions = reader("USRAgreedConditions") End IfIs there a better way?

We have a 2-tier architecture with thick client (.NET 2.0) applications directly accessing the SQL Server database. We are struggling to manage lots of users while maintaining security. Granting lots of users directly to the database seems to be tough to manage. In fact, we would like to let supervisors without DBA previlege to add and remove users of our applications. Using SQL Authentication (a single account to access the database) is the other alternative but it is not considered as a secure solution.
I would appreciate if anyone gives me suggestions on how to handle this, without moving to a 3-tier architecture (dedicated middle-tier DB access layer running a custom user account).
Thanks in advance.

Hi Folks ...Question for everyone that I have not been able to figure out. I have an application that is spread across tiers:SQL Connection defined in Web.Config file that connects to SQLServer database.DAL layer created references SQL Connection in Web.Config file - have noticed this copies the connection string information to the local properties for each TableAdapter that is defined in the DAL layer.BLL Layer that references Table Adapters declared in the DAL layer.When the web site is called, the link will provide an encoded id.Sample call to website: http://www.mysamplesite.com/default.aspx?company=AE2837FG28F7B327Based on the encoded id that is passed to the site, I need to switch the connection string to use different databases on the backend.Sample connection string: Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=dbSystem_LiveCorp1;User ID=client;Password=live2006 I would need to change Initial Catablog to the following:Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=dbSystem_LiveCorp196;User ID=client;Password=live2006How do I do this and have the connection string reflected in all of the Table Adapters that I have created in the DAL layer - currently 100+ Table Adapters have been defined.As we gain new clients, I need to be able to have each clients information located in a different database within SQL Server. Mandated - I have no choice in this requirement. Being as I don't want to have to recreate the DAL for several dozen clients and maintain that whenever I make a change to the DAL to then replicate across multiple copies. There has to be a way to dynamically alter the SQLConnection and have it recognized across all DAL TableAdapters.I'm developing with MS-Visual Studio 2005 - VB. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ...David Any day above ground is a good day ...

Hi
I think the subject is pretty clear.
We are thuinking of installing Server 2008 in x64 mode on a new Application-Tier-Machine. But due to existing projects which use several databases the SQL-machine runs on a Server 2003 x32.
Would it be possible to install the Reporting Services x64 binaries on the app-tier but use a x32 SQL-Instance for the data?
Thanks in advance

Hello everybody,
I'm developing a report using the following structure :
declare @sql as nvarchar(4000)
declare @where as nvarchar(2000)
set @sql = 'select ....'
If <conditional1>
begin
set @where = 'some where'
end
If <conditional2>
begin
set @where = 'some where'
end
set @sql = @sql + @where
exec(@sql)
I run it in query analyser and works fine, but when I try to run in Reporting Services, Visual studio stops responding and the cpu reaches 100 %.
I realize that when I cut off the if clauses, then it works at Reporting services.
Does anybody know what is happening?
Why the query works in query analyser and doesn't work in Reporting Service ?
Thanks,
Maurício

Greetings,We are trying to set up a set of "Leading Practices" for ourdevelopers, as well as ourselves, and hope some gentle reader canrecommend some documentation in favor of what appears to be the rightposition to take.We do not allow third party applications to run on our SQL Servers. Wewant to include DTS Packages under the definition of third partyapplications, insisting instead that the developers save theirpackages as COM Formatted files into their source code control systemsand run them from their app servers. The devlopers would like to hearthis from someone besides ourselves.While strong recomendations to remove guest access to MSDB altogetherabound, I have been unable to find a straight forward discussion ofthe advantages of structured file storage and app server off load ofDTS packages.Can anyone suggest any articles, white papers, rants, etc attemptingto formulate a solution to the benefits of taking msdb away fromguest, with the advantages of running DTS from an App server orworkstation platform, with the packages protected in source codecontrol?Thank youJohn Pollinsjpollins @ eqt . com

We are using the whole BI-package from Microsoft - from SQL, DTS-package,Raporting Service and Analyze Service.
It should be very helpful to be able to create a metadata databases where you could find all releations between different objects (tables,views,reports,cubes,DTS-package,Databases.
Just to get answer for: 'where is view xxx used', 'what are Report xxx depending upon'.
While everything exists in different SQL databases it should possible to do.
Has anyone any comments or the same needs ?

Hello,
In our project, we would like to use the same data source for our analysis service database cubes and for our reporting service reports.
I created the analysis service project first, deployed successfully. When trying to setting up the data source in the report model project, I selected the "create a data source based on another object", and then selected the "create a data source based on an analysis service project". However, there is no analysis service project to select, and no browse button to see where the reporting service is looking for analysis service project either.
I have tried creating a new analysis service project with data source views, cubes, dimensions and all the stuff, but still cannot see the analysis service project in the drop down box to be selected for my reporting model project data source.
As I am fairly new to the reporting service, I'm sure I'm missing something, but couldn't find much information in the help or on the web. Any suggestion would be much appreciated.
Thank you very much,
Annie

Hello all,
Q1:In all asp.net books the authors would tell you to seperate your presentation , business, and data layer but why does the wizards for the sql data source combine the presentation layer with the data layer?
Q2:Is there a way to retreive a dataset after you execut the sqldatasource.insert() command? .......I have a store procedure(sp) that i am using for inserting records. The sp is where i 'm validating all my data (shop standard) for example, ssn length, last name <> 0 etc. If there are any errors i grab all the error code from another table and return it. I can't seem to figure out how to get the dataset....

Hey all.
I've just been doing some surfing on the pros and cons of multi-tiered environments. I see a lot of conflicting information out there.
I'd like to get everybody's opinion of the advantages and disadvantages of two-tiered vs three-tiered applications, specifically with a SQL Server back-end and all the functionality that comes with it (TSQL, triggers, user-defined functions, etc...).
Also, some definitions or principles regarding what tasks should be handled in which layers (especially business logic).
Brett? Pat? RJabarov? Rudi? Others?

I have a 3 tier merge replication architecture that I am having some problems making changes to. We have a 3 tier architecture with many laptop instances on the bottom tier. It is exceedingly hard to coordinate having all laptop instances online simultaneously during non business hours with users present for local administration. The requirement is to change the name of the top tier without effecting the replication from the middle to bottom tiers.
I have so far renamed the top tier's instance, reconfigured publication, created a new top tier publication, and a new middle tier subscription. The top tier article has been set to delete all data in the subscriber's table when applying the snapshot. Making data changes at the middle tier filters correctly to both the top and bottom tiers. However, any changes made at the top or bottom tiers filter to the middle tier but no further. At that point, there are no errors, but simply no data needing to be merged.
Does anyone know how dropping and recreating a top tier publication could cause a 3 tiered replication architecture to behave like this? Is there any solution short of having to recreate subscriptions on all the bottom tier laptops?

There doesn't seem to be consensus about when to put code in thedatabase or in the middle tier. There was a long discussion about thisin an Oracle newsgroup (message ID:ULcQb.466$KU5.37@nwrddc02.gnilink.net).Elsewhere there's been discussion about Microsoft SQL Server 2005adding the CLR to support stored procedures in languages such as C#. Ascan of the Web and discussion forums finds differing opinions aboutthis.Two authors have written articles that fall on different sides of thedebate."Keys to the Database"http://www.intelligententerprise.co...icleID=50500830"SOA, Multi-Tier Architectures and Logic in the Database"http://www.sqlsummit.com/Articles/L...TheDatabase.HTMJoe Celko wrote the first article, but his objections point toMicrosoft SQL Server 2005:"I have an article at WWSUG.com on how much I hate the CLR stuff thatMicrosoft is putting out."http://blog.intelligententerprise.c...ves/002419.html"The bad news is that SQL Server 2005 will you define your ownaggregatefunctions in a CLR language."Message id: Join Bytes!IBM DB2 and Oracle are doing the same thing with the .NET CLR.

Hi All,
Im trying to migrate a N tiered solution written in Java and Berkeley DB(in memory DB product) to MS stack. ie the in memory DB is being used as a middle tier caching solution.
Im considering using SQLCE where Berkely DB was being used, im guessing that SQLCE being an inproc DB may be faster than using SQLExpress etc.
Has any one tried to do this before? and if so can you share your experience?
Alternatively if you can provide any resources on the web that discuss SQLCE performance(ie not when run on WinCE etc)/ comparison of query performance between SQLCE and SQL Express/Standard that would be great.
Thanks in advance

Feb 9, 2006
Hi all,
I am new to reporting services.
I have to call the reporting service(some else did this) from the web application that I have created using VB.NET . Not sure how to do it .. was reading few articles on the web .
Any good atricles out there ?
I have created web reference to http://server/ReportServer/ReportService.asmx in my web app. The report expects one parameter .
Below is the code I was starting to write to call the reporting service
Dim rs As New RSWebReference.ReportingService
rs.Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials
Dim result As Byte
Dim encoding As String
Dim mimetype As String
Dim parameters(2) As Parametervalue()
For some reason I cannot do ParameterValue() it says undefined. I am using Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 . do I have to use ASP.net2.0 for using reporting services?
ANy way i can get this working
Thanks in advance.

Hello Everyone
I'm looking for outside opinion on how to implement the business layer of an application. The straight forward idea I know of would be to develop a component that encapsulates all the business rules under objects. Client applications would access this component, and the business component would talk directly to the database. This was great for me when I used Access databases.
Now I have been introduced to SQL server and the stored procedures. I think stored procedures are one of the best features because these procedures can enforce rules as sort of a "last line of defence". So this is where my question comes in. Where would the best place be to implement the business layer? Through a component, such as XML services that allow other clients to access the business rules OR stored procedures.
I do understand that components/dlls provide MUCH more flexibility then stored procedures.
But, if I do take the component route:
- Other then SQL queries that get called multiple times, is there any use for stored procedures?
- For some case scenarios such as web sites that access a Business Layer, should the business layer use ONE sql server login/role to access the data or create a sql login/role for each major segment/service? E.g. one login for the accounting side, one login for the
web site services, one side for HR and the business layer will have to decide which one to use depending on the service requested.
- Would it be in the best interest of security that I allow the business components to send SQL queuries such as Insert/Delete/Update? I loved the idea of stored procedures because if for some reason, someone steals the business layer userId/password, they are only exposed to the assigned stored procedures and cannot do "Delete From Table". Unfortunately, this practice has led to an abundance of stored procedures (the list is HUGE).
If I do take the Sql stored procedure route:
- If someone steals any user Id/password, they will only be exposed to the assigned stored procedures and THOSE stored procedures contain the business rules. Thus the damage can be minimized.
- If some developer makes a mistake down the road or forgets some sort of business aspect (and is not going through the business layer), again, stored procedures would offer a last "line of defense". Lets face it, there are some applications that do not necessary require a business layer
I'd like to get everyone's opinion on how they partition the business rules with SQL server? Do you use SQL server stored procedures to only enforce formating rules (such as upper case, lower, etc) while the business rules are stored in a component?
Do you use stored procedures to enforce all business rules? None?
Thank you for your time,
Adrian

Hi all
When I'm installing sql reporting service I get an error that says "ASP.NET is not installed or is not registered with your web server."
I have iis installed, all of .net, and just installed .NET Framework Redist version 1.1
Can anyone tell me what I need to do to register ASP.NET or what I've done wrong.
Thanks for your help
Jerry
