Microsoft's Database-as-a-Service Offering

Intelligent Enterprise has posted a review of Microsoft's SQL Server Data Services. Rajan Chandras calls the offering a late but promising entry into the field for the mid-market, predicting that the offering might help businesses attempting to enter cloud computing and Web 2.0 markets.

Database as a Service, or DBaaS to use the tired acronym system, is not identical to DaaS or "Data as a Service" or "Infrastructure as a Service." DBaaS is just one part of data services, says Chandras.

Chandras goes on to conclude that the notion of DBaaS is certainly a step forward for Web 2.0.
