I have a client-server application that uses MS SQL Server Desktop Engine named instance. Now I want to use a third party to host my SQL Server DB over the internet. How do I configure my client machine to access this remote SQL Server DB through internet?

Instead of connecting to the server (Local), localhost or machinename you connect to the IP address of the SQL Server. Be warned that some ISPs block access to port 1433 through there networks.
