Why should you worry about the amount of space your data is consuming? This article by Neil Boyle presents some great reasons why you should be concerned. http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Performance+Tuning/savingspace/208/2003/02/21http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Performance+Tuning/savingspace/208/This article briefly discusses SQL Server's data and procedure cache and shows you the common Transact-SQL statements/command and system tables that you can use to interact with the cache through Transact-SQL. http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Administering/cache/766/2002/08/15http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Administering/cache/766/The strength and holy grail of relational databases lies in the very name: relations.

This small article, however, will try to shatter the very sacred notion of relational databases. http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Performance+Tuning+and+Scaling/relationaldatabasewithoutrelations/733/2002/07/29http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Performance+Tuning+and+Scaling/relationaldatabasewithoutrelations/733/Last week Andy started a discussion of the various ways you can reduce the number of round trips to the server. This week he continues by looking at a method he used recently to do client side caching of data to eliminate the round trip altogether.
