You have different options to handle it but it depends on your requirement.

One of those , Tadit has already suggested which uses Global.asax application event for the periodical DB updates. But can go through the link about the risk involved

Even implementing IHttpModule interface will can be helpful.

Or other option is to use timer in Masterpage .

May be one more option is to have a webservice and add a windows service to schedule the updations periodically.

Hope this helps you...

Okay, then use Global.asax and do your task there. Can't you?
