Maybe he doesn't have a choice.

Hence the smiley.

Assuming MSSQL and Sybase Server are still one in the same, it was actually a damned fine database server the last time I checked. Not terribly surprising given that Microsoft bought a code drop of Sybase in the '90s and based SQL Server off of that code, adding a relatively nice graphical front end.


At that point, it was described as "an excellent database server whose only weakness is the requirement to run on Windows NT".

Now, admittedly, it has been a while since I have worked with Microsoft's SQL Server. Maybe the quality has ceased in the interim. Maybe not.

To bring this back around to Cocoa, you can still use Core Data in such as situation. In particular, you can use Core Data as a local cache for the remote data -- either persisting in an in-memory store or into a local on-disk store (most likely SQLite) -- and subsequently take advantage of a bunch of the object graph management and cocoa integration features of Core Data.
