The old ADO (ActiveX Data Object) has evolved to ADO.NET in
the .NET Framework. The ADO.NET object is a lightweight
object. The ADO Recordset was a huge object in ADO. It
provided the ability to support multiple types of cursors.
It provided fast lightweight "firehose" cursor and also
supported a disconnected client-side cursor that supported
tracking, optimistic locking, and automatic batch updates of
a central database. However, all of this functionality was
difficult to customize.
ADO.NET breaks the functionality of the ADO object to
multiple classes, thereby allowing a focused approach to
developing code. The ADO.NET DataReader is equivalent to the
"firehose" cursor. The DataSet is a disconnected cache with
tracking and control binding functionality. The DataAdapter
provides the ability to completely customize how the central
data store is updated with the changes to a DataSet.
