Performance Benchmarks For ODBC Vs. Oracle, MySql, SQL Server .NET Providers Popular Articles

Clustered Index vs. Non-Clustered Index in

SQL Server
I did a simple benchmark for the 3 main databases (Oracle 11g, MySQL 5.1, SQL Server 2008) to see how using
ODBC compares to using their native providers in .NET for all database access. To keep things on an even playing C# Download File with Progress Bar
field, all 3 databases were run on the same machine, with the exact same database name, table name, and
Explanation of Cross Domain and Client
schema. Database authenticaton was used by all databases.
Access Policy files for Silverlight
This is a follow-up to the Performance benchmarks for LINQ vs. SqlDataReader, DataSet post where I tested Fixing Relative Paths in C# ASP.NET When
different data access methods. Here I just used DataReaders for all database access because it is the fastest and Using Url Rewriting
put all access on even footing. I have put up the code here (which was adapted from the previous benchmarks) so
you can see my methodology: Getting Started with Microsoft Chart
Controls for ASP.NET 3.5

As you can see, using the .NET Native Provider for the database you are connecting to makes a HUGE difference. I
avoid ODBC for any high performance system because its convenience in multiple database connections can't
cancel out its severe performance limitations on many systems.
