A linked server configuration enables SQL Server to execute commands against OLE DB data sources on remote servers. With a linked server, you can create very clean, easy–to-follow SQL statements that allow remote data to be retrieved,joined , and combined with local data. The ability to issue distributed queries and perform commands with transactions on heterogeneous sources is one of the benefits of using l inked servers.

    It is better if you add all concepts in a single thread, instead of creating multiple threads for each one. Or better yet, write a tutorial and upload to Downloads section
