Microsoft System CLR Types for SQL Server 2014 CTP 15.0.1200.24

Microsoft System CLR Types for SQL Server 2014 CTP is a set of managed libraries that allow developers to write .NET applications that interact with Microsoft SQL Server databases. These libraries are designed to provide a common interface for .NET developers to access SQL Server functionalities such as spatial operations and filestream storage.

• Spatial operations: CLR Types provide support for spatial datatypes that allow developers to store and manipulate geometric data, such as points, lines and polygons, in SQL Server.
• Filestream storage: Filestream is a feature in SQL Server that allows developers to store large binary data directly in the file system, rather than in the database. CLR Types provide support for working with Filestream data through .NET applications.

The primary use case for CLR Types is for accelerating the development of .NET applications that interact with SQL Server databases. The libraries provide a consistent and easy-to-use API for performing spatial and Filestream operations on data stored in SQL Server.
