Sharing data between Android App and database based windows server

Question

i am trying to share data between Android Application and database based on windows IIS 8.0 server. Our website is build using asp.NET.

I just want to find out what are possible ways available and their algorithm in easy language and What are the apis available in android and java library which i can use.

My application will download high amount of data including texts and images. And want to keep my app as much lighter as possible.

Like 1 - create connection using 2 - create session using 3 - and so on ...

I appreciate your help.

Thanks Karan Nagpal

There are some easy steps which can help you.

1. Create a listener in asp.net which will be hosted on IIS.
2. Call listener from mobile device via HTTP.
3. Call stored procedure or simple sql statements to fetch data from database and send back to mobile device in the form of Http Response(text,xml,json).

Hello check this page you can get what you want Android connectivity with php and mysql

The concept is same for every language you can use MSSql and .net in the place of php and mysql.
