You may want to architect a Web site that includes a data access layer to interface with your database. Visual Studio 2005 provides built-in designer support for building and maintaining a data access layer within your web application. The WYSIWYG data designer enables you to model database tables and stored procedures as components that encapsulate procedural ADO.NET data access logic. You can then easily access and update your data from both web pages and business objects through these data components. You can also use the new ObjectDataSource control in ASP.NET 2.0 for binding to a middle-tier object such as a data access layer or business component.
