Stored Procedure [OWNER]
-
I've read several articles recently, stating that it is good practice to name an Owner for your stored procedure. When I say owner I mean the owner described in the following syntax: CREATE PROCEDURE [OWNER].[PROCEDURE NAME] AS.
From what I understand this saves on overheads as it sops SQL Server looking for an owner before executing the sp.
My question is this: My database is the back-end to an asp/asp.net website. At present I have no owners assigned to my sp's(!). All connections from the website go through one connection string using a login called 'webuser'. The 'webuser' login is set up as user in SQL Server. All access to the database is done through this connection.
Is this the 'owner' I need to set in my sp's?
Thanks for any assistance you might be able to offer.

In a production environment all objects are likely (and probably should be) owned by dbo. If you don't say SQL Server checks for objects owned by the logged in user and if not found then checks for objects owned by 'dbo'. There was a great article recently about this if your interested see http://www.sqlservercentral.com/columnists/awarren/worstpracticesobjectsnotownedbydbo.asp
It should be evident who is the owner by looking at the objects via EM. If your tables, views procs are not owned by dbo I would suggest changing this and altering the procs etc to reflect this. Your 'webuser' login needs to be given appropriate authority.

In fact, it should be the calling part that should qualify the owner of the called object.
Because sqlserver 6.5,7.0,2K did not implement schema (sql2k5 will)
and has a garbage-owner called "dbo", keeping in mind the problems
with ownership-chaining(security/securitychecking), it's considered best practise to use dbo only.
This will avoid the chaining problems and make it more supportable for the dba's who are confronted with apps-execution problems.
