Retrieving And Sorting Millions Of Rows
Oct 11, 2007
Hello,
Currently we are in the process of implementing a sql server database where couple tables will have millions of rows ( about 98 millions and will grow) and a web site that will retrieve and sort the data ( read only). How asp.net gridview and sqldatareader act situation like that? Will it be a very slow response? Is there any alternative? Is there any example on the net?
Assuming tables are well tuned and well indexed.
Thank you in advance.

Sample Table
USE [Testing]
GO
/****** Object: Table [dbo].[Testing] Script Date: 4/25/2014 11:08:18 AM ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
[Code] ....
It seems to work fine with one million records.
Each primary key is unique, but the begindate is non-unique, and i guess even if i use datetime2 and add nanoseconds, from what i have read, there is a chance that i could have a duplicate datetime since the date is imported via XML from multiple sources.

Hi everyone - I have an ETL package which loads about 10 million rows from SQL 2005 staging tables to new, empty tables (no indexes or constraints) in another SQL 2005 DB to be SWITCHED into the main partioned data tables.
Both databases reside on the same SQL Server instance - it is a dev server so the disk aren't super fast/SAN speeds but it has plenty of RAM/CPU & SCSI disks.
The insert takes about 45 minutes - can I get this working any faster?? or is this typical for 10 million rows?? I've messed about withe the data flow a few times but I can't seem to get any significant improvements.
Any tips anyone??
I perform several lookups on dimensions - these are not cached.
I do query the source table concurrently with different WHERE clauses & run two pipelines processing the data into 2 destination tables.
Would it be better to query the base table once & use a conditional split instead of the two separate queries??
I also mulicast from each pipeline & use a UNION ALL to log some of the rows from each pipeline to anther destination table.
Hope this makes sense?? Any ideas or tips on how I can speed up this kinda transform would be appeciated..
I'm using oleDB connections.
Hope ths makes some kinda sense!! Thanks for any advice!!

I run the following statement and it will not update beyond 7 million plus rows and I have about 38 million to complete. I keep checking updated row counts and after 1/2 day it's still the same so I know something is wrong because it was rolling through no problem when I initiated it. I need to complete ASAP so it's adding to my frustration. The 'Acct_Num_CH' field is an encrypted field (fyi).
SET rowcount 10000
UPDATE [dbo].[CC_Info_T]
SET [Acct_Num_CH] = 'ayIWt6C8sgimC6t61EJ9d8BB3+bfIZ8v'
WHERE [Acct_Num_CH] IS NOT NULL
WHILE @@ROWCOUNT > 0
BEGIN
SET rowcount 10000
UPDATE [dbo].[CC_Info_T]
SET [Acct_Num_CH] = 'ayIWt6C8sgimC6t61EJ9d8BB3+bfIZ8v'
WHERE [Acct_Num_CH] IS NOT NULL
END
SET rowcount 0

Hi,
I have a DataTable in memory and I want to write a C# code to dump the data into a SQL database. Is there a faster way of dumping millions of rows into a SQL table besides running INSERT INTO row by row?
Thank you,

Hello,
Currently we are in the process of implementing a sql server database where couple tables will have millions of rows (about 98 millions and will grow) and an asp.net site that will retrieve and sort the data
What will be the best practice installing the database in situation like this one?
Do we need a cluster server? Indexing needs to be done in a special way?
Thanks in advance.

I am using SQL Server 2012 SE.I am trying to delete rows from a couple of tables (GetPersonValue has 250 million rows and I am trying to delete 50Million rows and GetPerson has 35 Million rows and I am trying to delete 20 million rows). These tables are in TX replication.The plan is to delete data older than 400 days old.
I tried to move data to new tables from the last 400 days and it took me like 11 hours. If I delete data in chunks of 500000 then its taking a long time to rebuild indexes(delete plus rebuild indexes 13 hours). Since I am using standard edition partition wont work.
find ddl below:
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[GetPerson](
[GetPersonId] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,
[LinedActivityPersonId] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,
[CTName] [nvarchar](100) NULL,
[SNum] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[PHPrimary] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[code]....

I have deleted nearly 30 million rows from a table. But however when I used the sp_spaceused command to calculate the data occupied by the table I don't see any difference in the data size of the table. In fact the data has increased to few MBs after the deletion, but not much.

I have the following sql:
SELECT DISTINCT patient.patientID, patientFirstName, patientLastName, patientDOB, patientGender, completed_date
FROM patient
LEFT JOIN patient_record ON patient_record.patientID = patient.patientID
WHERE (sub_categoryID = 4 OR patient_record.allocated = 4)
AND (patient_status = 1 OR patient_status = 2 OR patient_status = 5)
GROUP BY patient.patientID, patientFirstName, patientLastName, patientDOB, patientGender, completed_date
This brings up duplicate records, my aim is to bring distinct records, now if I take out the other returned fields after patientID
and using the following sql:
SELECT DISTINCT patient.patientID
FROM patient
LEFT JOIN patient_record ON patient_record.patientID = patient.patientID
WHERE (sub_categoryID = 4 OR patient_record.allocated = 4)
AND (patient_status = 1 OR patient_status = 2 OR patient_status = 5)
GROUP BY patient.patientID
This bring up distinct results, but I need to retrieve the other fields from the database i.e. patientFirstName and patientLastName
Please can you help.

I wonder if you can help...
I have a simple setup: 2 tables and a joining table, and want to retrieve a data set showing every possible combination of table A and table B together with whether that combination actually exists in the joining table or not.
My tables:
channels
======
channel_id
channel_name
items
====
item_id
item_name
channels_items (joining table)
===========
channel_id
item_id
created
An example of the dataset I want (assuming 2 items and 2 channels, with itemA not being in channelB):
item_id item_name channel_id channel_name exists
======= ========= ========== ============ ======
1 ItemA 1 ChannelA True
2 ItemB 1 ChannelA True
1 ItemA 2 ChannelB False
2 ItemB 2 ChannelB True
I'm completely stuck on how to achieve this. Any guidance would be very much appreciated.

I want to retrieve only the first n rows from a query which returns a large number of rows.

Hi, can someone plz give me an idea of how to proceed with this...
I've got a server side cursor that retrieves a list of customers from a sql server table which match a specific criteria (those who have had orders in the yr 2000)
For each customer, I need to retrieve a list of 5 top items purchased along with dollars spent on each item by that customer.
I've tried to do this in a loop that uses a counter but probably my syntax was off and I'm not sure that this is better than a correlated join? Can someone show me a temlate of the appropriate syntax to use for this operation
I appreciate suggestions, thanks again.

Message:
Hi,
Suppose i execute a query,
Select * from emp,
I get 100 rows of result, i want to write a sql query similar to the one available in MySql database where in i can specify the starting row and number of rows of records i want,
something like,
select * from emp LIMIT 10,20
I want all the records from the 10th row to the 20th row.
This would be helpful for me to do paging in the front end , where is i can navigate to the next previous buttons and fetch the corresponding records.
I want to do something like in google, previous next screens.
So I am trying to limit the number of rows fetched from a query.
somethin like,
select * from emp where startRowNum=10 and NoOfRecords = 20
so that i can get rows from 10 to 30.
Has any1 done this, plz let me know.
Cheers,
Prashant.

So if i have table with 9 rows i will get rows 5-8,

The Above is my database, I need help in retrieving the X_Co and the Y_Co using values of rcv_A, rcv_B and rcv_C to compare with the Mean_A, Mean_B, Mean_C. The values of rcv_A, rcv_B and rcv_C are instances of values that are not exact of the mean columns , and we want is to compare it against our database and retrieve the row that is the closest to the rcv_A, rcv_B and rcv_C.
Here is an example of what i need. Let's say my rcv_A = 71, rcv_B = 73 and rcv_C = 70.8, so the row with mean value closest would be row 1, followed by row 2, then row 3.
So the result i hope to retrieve is in order of the closest value and i only need the X_Co and Y_Co.
This is what i want
X_Co Y_Co

So anyone please can help me in querying for the above results? Thanks

I have a report where I am giving the users a parameter so that they can select which field they would like to sort on.The report is also grouping by that field. I have a gruping section, where i have added code to group on the field I want based on this parameter, however I also would like to changing the sorting order but I checked around and I did not find any info.
So here is my example. I am showing sales order info.The user can sort and group by SalesPerson or Customer. Right now, I have code on my dataset to sort by SalesPerson Code and Order No.So far the grouping workds, however the sorting does not.
Any suggestions would help.

SSRS 2012 - VS2010...The report compares two years with a sort order on a value that has been engineered based on text switched to int. Â When sorting A-Z this is the result in the horizontal axis is: 5th, K, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th..When sorting Z-A the result in the horizontal axis is:5th, 4th, 3rd, 2nd, 1st, PreK..Z-A is correct but A-Z sorting shows 5th as the start and end. Â The magnitude of the PreK location is correct but the label is wrong on the A-Z sort order. Â The sorting is implemented using the Category Group sorting option.

Hi
Please guide me for the below given problem.
While doing migration by using cursors for the below given sample data its taking more hours to complete the process. Therefore want to know is there any way I can do it in simple query.
ACNo Amount Balance CalType
A001 10 10 +
A001 10 20 -
A001 40 40 +
A001 10 30 -
A002 90 90 +
A002 20 110 +
A002 40 150 +
A003 10 30 +
A003 10 40 +
A003 10 30 -
A004 40 40 +
A004 10 30 -
Iam having Amount value alone and Balance has to be calculated value based on CalType. At the same time the Balance has to be reset as 0 when AcNo has changed.
Please guide me for the faster approach.

Hi everyone,
I have been trying to store millions of files (layer tiles) in NTFS now for a while with little success as the read/write speed drops off the chart or NTFS itself gets corrupted. My questions are:
1) Is there any way to store millions of files successfully in NTFS?
2) What does VE use to store its tiles (I am guessing SQL Server)?
3) If VE does not use SQL Server to store tile images, has anyone tried it and what are the pros/cons?
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks in advance,
Matt

Hi Teachies,
I am using SQL Server Standard Edition .
in one of my table , there i am inserting around 25 millions records and that takes time around more than 3 hrs.
same thing is happening while fetching records from that table.
this database contains only single file group i.e primary
and that table contains .. Clustered as well as non clustered index.
it doesnot have any Triggers.
How do i increase this performance.
Paritioning of table cannot be use in SQL Server Standard Edition.
Or Dropping all non clustered index before insert operation will improve my performance.
Please suggest me.
Thanks
