A linked server is available in Microsoft SQL Server and is a VERY handy method of connecting two Microsoft Servers OR a Microsoft Server to a MySQL server.

It enables you to run queries, even joins, on two different tables on two different database on two different physical servers.

Say you have a customer table on server:A1 database:customer table:names
and transaction table on server:B1 database:callrecords table:calls

select * from B1.callrecords.calls where customerid=(select customerid from A1.customer.names where name='Bob Jones';

I have run many call centers with MS Sql Server databases linked to an Asterisk MYSQL database server to get call records and do call Q&A. Clark Vera
