Gripe: Interoperability
Jul 23, 2005
Today I got the latest propaganda email from MSFT talking about XML and
interoperability. It's been bothering me all day and while the notion
of interoperability is good -- the ability to interact with disparate
heterogeneous platforms and protocols -- what really bugs me is the
choice of words.
Interoperability has 8 syllables, only 6 syllables shy of
"Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious". Plus Inter implies movement
between objects. When you fly between countries, it's going
international. When we're sending something within the company
firewall, we're working inside the intranet. However, we're not moving
between "operabilities".
What is operability? To operate; to use. The operator; the user.
Operable; usable or state of usefulness. Operability; WTF? If one
moment I was driving in my car and the next, I wreck my car -- then my
car has changed its state of usefulness. So my car experienced
interoperability?
Anyways...

[OLE DB Destination [255]] Error: The "input "OLE DB Destination Input" (268)" failed because error code 0xC020907B occurred, and the error row disposition on "input "OLE DB Destination Input" (268)" specifies failure on error. An error occurred on the specified object of the specified component.
I've condensed the useful information in the statement down to the following:
"An error occured."
I'd like to also provide a plain english paraphrase.
An error occured somewhere to something. This means that something somewhere didn't work right. The cause of the thing not working right is an error of some sort. We'd like to provide you with the following piece of diagnostic information: we know that an error occured somewhere to something because the error row disposition tells us this. We hope that helps. Thank you, and have a nice day.
Now, could anyone translate this into Klingon? I think it would be easier to understand and just as useful.

Hi all.
In my current infrastructure I have a SQL 2005 32-bit server and want to integrate a SQL 2005 64-bit in to it. So my question is can 32-bit agent communicate with 64-bit agent and vice versa. And are there any known interoperability issues with these two versions? Pls advice.
Thank you.

1) if our .net app (oltp) is changed to ask sql for encryption (rather than thru .net) on server A, can server B where our wh resides, thru a linked server run an sp remotely on A and get A to provide decryption thru the keys defined there?
2)can the encryption keys etc defined on one server be imported to another server and still behave exactly the same way on the 2nd server as they do on the first? ie decrypt data originally encrypted by the first successfully.
