Database Engine administration programming is concerned with three APIs: SMO (including RMO and NMO), SQL-DMO, and WMI. These three API sets let the programmer write programs that manage the SQL Server Database Engine. They represent programming interfaces that provide the data definition language (DDL) for SQL Server.
