Application developers have long held the belief that housing database operations within stored procedured yielded optimum performance and guarded against SQL Injection attacks. It was also thought that these advantages were worth the extra costs associated with maintenance, testing, and migration of database logic to a different vendor. In recent years, the tide has been turning away from stored procedures - or procs - towards Object-relational Mappers (ORM) such as Hibernate or Entity Framework as developers have begin to question these long-standing assumptions.
The Are Stored Procedures an Outdated Tool? article highlighted a few reasons for eschewing stored procedures in favor of application code and ORMs. This week, we'll explore the two myths introduced above and see if they still stand up to scrutiny today.
Stored procedures have been falling out of favour with some organizations for several years now. The preferred approach of these businesses for accessing their database(s) is to employ an Object-relational Mapper (ORM) such as NHibernate or Entity Framework. Over the next couple of blog articles, we'll explore their reasons for doing so, and whether this paradigm shift points to the eventual obsolescence of Stored Procedures.

We think you will particularly appreciate the improvement for highlighting the selected row and active cell. You can now easier to see your current place in Grid View.
We’ve improved the data alignment in Grid View. Previously, this made it difficult to view data between number column and text column, but now Navicat handles this situation well.
