Dapr SQL Server

Dapr is not a service mesh . While service meshes focus on fine-grained network control, Dapr is focused on helping developers build distributed applications. Both Dapr and service meshes use the sidecar pattern and run alongside the application.

Dapr uses a sidecar pattern, meaning the Dapr APIs are run and exposed on a separate process (i.e. the Dapr sidecar) running alongside your application . The Dapr sidecar process is named daprd and is launched in different ways depending on the hosting environment.

The state query API provides a way of querying the key/value data stored in state store components . This query API is not a replacement for a complete query language, and is focused on retrieving, filtering and sorting key/value data that you have saved through the state management APIs.

Dapr integrates with existing databases to provide apps with state management capabilities for CRUD operations, transactions and more . It also supports the configuration of multiple, named, state store components per application. State stores are extensible and can be found in the components-contrib repo.
