# SQL Server In-Process Specific Extensions to ADO.NET
[!INCLUDE[appliesto-ss-xxxx-xxxx-xxx-md](../../includes/appliesto-ss-xxxx-xxxx-xxx-md.md)]
  There are four main functional extensions to ADO.NET that are specifically for in-process use. The following topics will cover these extensions in detail.  
  
## In This Section  
 [SqlContext Object](../../relational-databases/clr-integration-data-access-in-process-ado-net/sqlcontext-object.md)  
 This class provides access to the other extensions by abstracting the context of a caller of a SQL Server routine that executes managed code in-process.  
  
 [SqlPipe Object](../../relational-databases/clr-integration-data-access-in-process-ado-net/sqlpipe-object.md)  
 This class contains routines to send tabular results and messages to the client.  
  
 [SqlTriggerContext Object](../../relational-databases/clr-integration-data-access-in-process-ado-net/sqltriggercontext-object.md)  
 This class provides information on the context in which a trigger is run.  
  
 [SqlDataRecord Object](../../relational-databases/clr-integration-data-access-in-process-ado-net/sqldatarecord-object.md)  
 The SqlDataRecord class represents a single row of data, along with its related metadata, and allows stored procedures to return custom result sets to the client.
