Should I use BCS my backend database will update all the record of the sql table daily.

Should I use the BCS where the database table is going to be updated daily.
All the records will be updated on daily basis.
Why should I use BCS when I can connect to the sql server directly and  update the records that I need.
What additional benefits can I get from BCS , I do not need the search functionality.

Hi,
According to description, my understanding is that you want to know if you need to use Business Connectivity Services to connect external SQL table.
Business Connectivity Services is a centralized infrastructure in SharePoint 2013 and Office 2013 that supports integrated data solutions.
Business Connectivity Service will provide a familiar user interface to manage sql table data. It is more security for reading and writing data to external sql table.
Here is a detailed article for your reference:

  • When using Safari, my iPad 1 will end Safari and return to the home screen for no apparent reason, any ideas as to cause and solution?

    When using Safari, my iPad 1 will end Safari and return to the home screen for no apparent reason, any ideas as to cause and solution?

    See if the following help.
    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data and also Clear History
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    Turning off iCloud and multitasking gestures on the iPad might also help.

  • I want to upgrade iOS from 5 to 6, but when I go to synch everything in preparation, it tells me I will lose all my stuff on the iPhone and iPad which is unique.  How can I backup or do a "real synch" (both sides have same data) and then upgrade?

    I want to upgrade iOS from 5 to 6, but when I go to synch everything in preparation, it tells me I will lose all my stuff on the iPhone and iPad which is/are  unique.  How can I backup or do a "real synch" (both sides have same data at end of process) and then upgrade?

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

  • Error while saving the records in the database

    Hi,
    I am running into a wierd error.
    I have built a new page which contains the information about the employees. Some of the fields are updatable fields. The page shows the details of the person who logs into the page.
    I am not using EO in this page. The data is queried from the database from VO and displayed in the page and when the records are updated, they are saved in the databased using pl/sql procedure which is
    being called from AM. So i am basically not using VO to save the records in the database.
    The error which i am getting is,
    If 2 users are trying to update the page at the same time, user A's details are updated in user B's page.
    This is really causing the issue. Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

  • HT4061 dtr plugged in phone to itunes and it prompted an error and now phone says it has to be restored.  She doesn't want to to do this as she will loose all pics...the screen is stuck on prompt to plug in to itunes

    My dtr plugged her phone in to link to itunes and it prompted an error message.  Now itunes saying she has to restore the phone which she doesn't want to do as will lose all pics...the phone has a screen that will only prompt to reconnect to itunes even after turning off.  What can I do to save what is in the phone? Please and thanks!

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons until the iPhone begins to start, try this a few times if necessary. If still problem, you may have to just Restore your iPhone to get it working. In the future sync your iPhone with iTunes routinely and when it contains important data, iCloud when set correctly will do this for you continuously.

  • What should I use BCS or directly connect to sql server to get data.

    Hi All,
    I have a requierment where the data is in the sql server.
    We  are using sharepoint webpart to show the data from the sql.
    Should i get the data from the sql server using connection string.
    Is there any better way to get data from Sql server table and show that in the custom asp.net form.
    Regards
    Vinod

    As I see the questions is in SharePoint 2013 forum.
    Assuming you have SharePoint 2013/2010, you can create Create/Read/Update/Delete operations on directly sql table using BCS service of SharePoint. That will save you default development of web part and handle all information properly.
    If you don't want to use BCS and sql (not sharepoint sql) information required, you can create custom web part/app part.

  • What database should i use for a flash application which i need to record score and name for a scoreboard.

    Hi. I wrote down the summary of my project so that you can
    understand and answer me more easily:
    I have to build an application (a little flash game) in which
    I record the number of clicks. I want the player to choose a nick
    at the beginning and when he finishes one or all the four choices
    of target, i want the application to write his nick and final score
    in a database for displaying in a scoreboard (hall of fame). All
    the new entries should be sorted according to the score. If the
    same nick appears again, it's final score will be modified in the
    scoreboard only if is higher then the previous.
    I was thinking of creating a variable for the name that is
    chosen at the beginning and a variable for the score that is
    recorded. When the player finishes the game i want the application
    to write his data in the database, and then to display the
    scoreboard (let's say top 10 players in the database from the
    highest to the lowest score).
    I never did this before so i am asking what database shoud i
    use? I need a programmer to create one for me? Or can flash
    generate the database?
    Is the variable the good way or should I aproach the problem
    by other means? And if a programmer creates a database in MySql is
    that good or he should convert it to XML, or Flash generates the
    XML?
    Thank you.

    I did areal photography one time.  What you have listed would not be on my short list for lenses to take at all.

    It and the XTi will work as a mattter of fact I took two XTi's on my flying photo experience.  But I had the fantastic EF 70-200mm.  Another thing, there is NOT a lot of room on these aircraft.

  • Can I use a submit button that will automatically flatten and open up the save as screen?

    Hello,
    I'm working with forms in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and I want the submit button to flatten the document then open the save as screen.  I know I can print to pdf and this automatically will open that screen, but these forms are going to be used with tablets that may or may not have the "print to adobe" as an option.  Is there another way to flatten?  I know the PDF Optimizer will do that too, but it isn't an executable option in the button properties.  Magic anyone?  Thanks.

    It depends very much on the platform and the applications used by the users of this form. If they are using non-Adobe software, all bets are off.
    Also, some tablets (iPad) don't support JS, so even if they do use Adobe's Reader for the iOS, there's not much that can be done in the way of scripting.
    Generally speaking: In Acrobat you can flatten the form, but in Reader that's not possible. What you can do, though, is create a function that makes the form fields read-only, thus preventing the user from editing them after having submitted the file.

  • Should I use a clipping mask for this? Am I approaching this the wrong way?

    Greetings and Salutations!
         I am currently creating some cycling jerseys for my friends and I. Im fairly new to Illustrator, so I created my "Proof" in Photoshop.
    This is what it is suppose to look like.
    Now that the proof got a thumbs up, i need to vectorize this and get it ready for print.
    Though I've run into a small issue. Im not sure exactly how I should proceed in correcting this.
    I lay the outline of the Lion down
    I then created a "fill" layer with an opacity of 50%
    Together they form the feline version of Voltron
    Now I need to insert the yellow Lion. Thus I duplicate both layers and change the light blue to a yellow, and this happens due to the opacity of the "fill" layer
    You can see the yellow lion in behind the blue lion! Expected since i have the fill layer at 50%!
    I dont know how to correct this. I was thinking of making a clipping mask for Lion #2
    But wasnt sure if thats what i needed to do. Can anyone give me advice?
    I feel like I am toying with unknown technology and ive accidentally created a monster! Halp before it gains consciousness!
