I\'m trying to read JSON data from a URL in SQL Server 2008, using this code:
DECLARE @temp table (RowNum int, DATA N
This is an example of "just because you can, doesn't mean you should".
SQL Server is not the right tool for this job; the fact that it works at all is amazing. If you want to speed it up, put in in a c# or php program and let SQL server do that job it was intended for. Processing jSON responses is not one of them.
