Update Horizontal Partitions
Feb 24, 2004
I'm considering using horizontal partitions to separate my data by year.
For example, SomeTable_2004, SomeTable_2003, etc. This works well for backups, maintenance, etc. because I'm working with 150+ GB of data. I'll be a partitioned view for queries.
However, I'm new at this and have a few questions. I would also like to do partitioned updates or inserts. But I need to make sure that the tables don't use similar primary keys. Does that make sense? I need to make sure that the primary keys from the first table are not used again in the second table.
SomeTable_2003
primary keys: 1,5,8,9,15
SomeTable_2004
primary keys: 2,3,4,10
I don't really care what keys are used on what table, as long as they are different. I have apps that already use this data, and I don't want to change the application logic.
Thanks,

I am testing horizontal partitions to see whether it is a feasible
option for a project. IF I have a composite Primary Key and the
constraint column (a part of the Primary Key) that helps the
partitioned view is defined with DateTime Data Type, select on a restricted set of data through a partitioned view still tries to access all the tables instead of just one table that contains the data. Is this the case or am I
missing something ?
Any help on this is appreciated.
Here is what I am trying to do.
************************************************** **************
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tst01] (
[Dt] datetime NOT NULL ,
[TID] int NOT NULL ,

When I look at the Execution Plan, it shows that clustered index seek
would be performed on both the tables.

I want to display my problem. I have a cube that connected to hive DB through views. There are some changes that apply to  some related tables on hive. This changes reflect on the cube so i make full process for the cube. I want to process only partitions that have been changed without full process. I detect changes on this table on another table on the local database.

Does anyone have any statistics on the performance gains one can get using raw partitions. The database in question is very IO intensive and performs about 1,000,000 inserts/updates per select.

Please help!
I have a server that has SQL Server installed on both C and D drives. The SQL Server software is currently running from the C drive and the live databases and backups are stored on the D drive.
I need to have everything on the D drive. Is there an easy way to make the registry point to the D drive without reinstalling SQL Server? The software will needs to run from the D drive because the C drive is running out of disk space. I will also need to delete the whole C:mssql directory.
Thanks.

assuming that you have two databases, the OLTP db and the OLAP db (take not that both have the same structure -- archiving purposes)... using table partitioning, is there a way where we can move 1 partition from the OLTP db to the OLAP db???
i'm actually trying to use this example with both tables in the DB.. I tried to modify to use two databases but sql server is unable to move the partition...
ALTER TABLE [Production].[TransactionHistory]
SWITCH PARTITION 1
TO [Production].[TransactionHistoryArchive] PARTITION 2;

Hi experts,
In SQL Server 2005 database we have partitioned a very big table into 30 partitions each holding few million of records.
Im just curious to know whether there are some configuration related to processors or system hardware in order to benefit from partitioning ? (Ex : If we have multiple processors Whether they need be configured to do a parallel processing ? )
Any real time experience (other than referring links) would be really helpful for me.
Thanks in advance,
Hariarul

Hi There,
I have a quick question regarding merging cube partitions.
If I create partitions sliced by date (let's assume we have year level partitions like 2006,2007,2008...)
Later, if I want to merge selected partition to another partition , for example I have history partition and 2006 partition and I want to merge 2006 to history partition then I can simply merge them using ' merge partition' through Management Studio.
My question is that in script, History partition has condition which is where clause and restricted by year level (i.g. WHERE date < '01-01-2006' ) ; however after merging , script won't change like WHERE date <'01-01-2007').
If so, whenever I merge partitions then I have to alter the script as well based on selected merge partion?
I need to refresh history partition once a month;however even if I merge 2006 partition , once I reprocess history partition then it only process what it was wrote in script. So, after reprocessing 2006 data won't appear in this history partition.
So, wondering it's mentatory to alter the script once partition is merged.
Please give me some comments on this issue.
Thanks in advance.

If I have the raw data dumped into a big table as following:
Date P R M E Date P R M E Date P R M E Date P R M E
1/1/90 1 2 3 4 1/1/90 2 3 4 5 1/1/90 3 4 5 6 1/1/90 4 5 6 7
...
1/1/05 1 2 3 4 1/1/05 2 3 4 5 1/1/05 3 4 5 6 1/1/05 4 5 6 7
And this table has a repeating block [D, P, R, M,E] 300 times. Is it possible to write a loop query/stored procedures/triggers (or whatever it is) to read each repeating block and stack them on top of each other to insert into another table which has the same structure as following?
Look like this?
Date P R M E
1/1/90 1 2 3 4
...
1/1/05 1 2 3 4
1/1/90 2 3 4 5
...
1/1/05 2 3 4 5
1/1/90 3 4 5 6
...
1/1/05 3 4 5 6
If there is a solution would you please elaborate, example?
Thank you for the help.

Hello all,Thinking about building a new database in the enterprise addition ofsql server and using some horizontal parititioning techniques in orderto accomaodat what will eventually be a monster huge database.Can you share some hard earned experience, gotchas, etc...with me? Wewill be setting up this server on a SAN array that will be made up ofjust one or two huge virtual RAID10 volumes and I am also wonderingabout the wisdom of this? Its simple and should work, but is thatconfig relevant in any way specifically to our plan to partition?

how to set up the partitions.I have a transaction table with 50 million records that's very hard to query. it holds data for the last 4 years but the application only ever looks at the last 6 months so i believe this is and ideal candidate for partitioning.
Would it be better to
1) create a partition based on each year for all data so would have a 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012?
2) create 1 partition based on month for this years data then 3 based on year so would have jan,feb,march,april,may..., 2014, 2013, 2012
For 1) would you have to perform some maintenance at the turn of each year for accommodating the next years data. For 2) although this would give better performance as query's are mostly in the last 6 months wouldn't this have more maintenance to move month data to year partitions come the turn of the year and then create the next years months partitions.

I just inherited a dev box, and need to do some performance analyzing on a 40 gig db for a client. Time is of the essence!
My question is that this dev box only has one disk partition (c: drive). Is it a huge deal that I don't have the db system files on one drive, with the data files on another, and tempdb on another,etc.....

Hi experts,
We have a huge table with around 250 million records and have implemented SQL server 2005's new table partitioning feature. Now the data seems to be evenly spread across 20 different filegroups ( each 5 GB approx ) for the same table that was occupying 100 GB itself in the PRIMARY filegroup earlier.
Still the query response times have not come down drastically but we could see a good improvement in the execution plans now.
WE ARE USING RAID 5 IN OUR PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT. ANY IDEA / THOUGHT ON HOW TO PLACE THE PARTITIONED FILEGROUPS AND THE LOG FILES IN THE RAID 5 (BTW , I'm very new to RAID concepts , any detailed instruction would be helpful ).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

I have a requirement that I need to reload the last seven days worth of data each night to ensure that we pick up late arriving and updated records. To avoid having to do updates we delete the last seven days data and reload.
I was wondering if it is possible to set up the table as a partition, paritioned on a value (OLD, NEW) or similar.
The job would set the last day in the NEW partition to be old, the theory being that this would cause the rows to move to the OLD parition, and then truncate the new partion rather than deleting. The last seven days data could then be inserted into the empty new partition.
My questions is 1. Is my theory about the data moving from one partition to another correct. 2. Can I actually truncate and individual parition, 3. Do you think it will perform any quicker. We would expect data in the range of 100K to 500K rows in the seven days and will store up to 4 years of historical data.
Thanks for your thoughts

Hi,
For my work I am now learning Sql server 2005 and I have been given a database that has been set up by someone else to work with. It is my job to get the database ready for use in reports.
My problem is that the current database has one huge table with almost 8GB of data. The table contains data from 2004 to present (and growing) from 14 different countries. The reports we use are mostly per country, but we also want to compare the 14 countries to eachother for say, whole 2006. At the moment the table is stored in one single file instead of using partitions.
I believe partitions can give a good performance boost when running the queries. But how do I do this? Currently the country codes are just plain text, can they be used for partitions?
Any advice would be welcome,
Thanks!

I have 2 installations:1. W2k with MS SQL 2000 sp2.2. W2003 with MS SQL sp3.There are two databases in all instalations: "maindb" and "userdb". Thetable with data is in maindb.In the 1'st installation I restict user access to all data in table in thisway:- create user's login and user in databases maindb and userdb.- create view in userdb with "where" clause as dbo (dbo is owner of thisview). This clause restict access to data. (create view userdb.dbo.table asselect * from maindb.dbo.table where ...)- add user to group "Public" in maindb.- add role "data reader" to user in userdb.- effect: user can access data only by view, can not access any data inmaindb.I do the same in secound installation:- effect: user can not access data by view - message like this: "userhave not permission to select on maindb.dbo.table"Is this bug in sp3 or in sp2 ?Is there another way to horizontal restrict access data in tables?In Sybase ASE this method (restict by view) works ok. And there is newproperty of ASE 12.5.1 - administrator can define context of login - the"where" clause will be added automatically to any select.Please help me. Thank You for any advice.

I recently came across a database where the data are horizonally partitionedinto 4 tables. I'm not sure if this was a poor design choice, or if it wasdone for valid performance reasons. The schema of the tables are essentiallythe same, it's just that they are named differenly and the columns are nameddifferenlty to differentiate the data from a business usage perspective. Thetables could easily be combined inot one by adding a new colum to theclustered index that would be used to differentiate the business usage. I amtrying to evaluate whether combining the tables would improve performance orif it would be better to leave them the way they are. Many queries that runagainst these tables do not request records from more than one of thetables, which is good. However, there are a number of processes that queryagainst all of the tables on the identical clustered index range. I am notsure exactly how many rows are in the tables but I'm fairly certain theentire database is < 50 GB.

Hi Experts,
We have a very huge database that stores 12 years of data(120 Million records). But our application mainly accesses past 3 years data i.e , the queries would scan the 120 million records even when it actually has to scan 30 million records alone (for 3 years).
Since few other important applications needs access to all the 12 years data, we are in a position to have 12 years data in the same database.
Right now we are looking for an approach that would help us to efficiently access the 3 years data alone and boost the performance.
1. Will SQL server table paritioning help in this scenario ?
Or
2. Indexed views would help us ? Is it possible to create indexed views based on year range and access the views in the stored procedures ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Hariarul

I have 3 partitions using a year grouping. Current year, previous 4 years, older than 5 years. I have two measure groups, one is a distinct count, so I actually have 6 partitions.I also use usage based optimization to build my aggregations. Should each partition have a separate aggregation or should there be one for each measure group?

We are currently developing an OLTP application, which will need to purge data when it becomes older than 1 hour.Rather than having a process which deletes rows periodically (and risks locking the tables), I am considering using partitioning on a rolling 15 minute window.The idea is to have 5 active partitions, with the 5<sup>th</sup> one being swapped out, merged and a new one split in. This will allow data to live to a max of 1 hour 15 mins,which is acceptable.
Actually, I will have 8 partitions; there will be 4 partitions set in the future, just to ensure when the last partition is split, there isn’t any data movement, as the newest partition will be empty.I am wondering if there will be any performance issues due to partition swapping, merging and splitting every 15 minutes? The application will have a high volume of users when live. I think this should be a better option that continually deleting from the tables.

I am using Sql 2005 and merge replication with push subscriptions. I have several dynamic join filters on some of my tables.
The join filters all use a central table that maps say a server location name (something that is returned from HOTNAME() in my case) to an for a store branch ID. This is a retail system database.
When I add a new new subscription I update this table with the new server location name and it's corresponding branch ID. My filtered tables all have a foreign key in them that is the branch ID. I can then effectively join from the server location name to a Branch ID.
What I have noticed is that if I update one row in the map table, sql server will re-generate all partitioned rows for all subscribers, even for rows that haven't been updated.
The net result is that when I add a subscription, my existing subscriptions all get about 52,000 row updates.
Am I seeing this because I said my partitions will overlap when I created the table articles?
Thanks for any help

First of all, we are using SQL Server 2005 with a SQL Mobile subscriber and we are attempting to use Data Partitions on our current database
schema which contains associative tables for many-to-many relationships.
We have two tables, a User table
and an Audit table. A user can be
assigned more than one Audit. An Audit
can be assigned to more than one User.
So an AuditUser associative table exists. If data partitions are used based on User,
then any Audits that are assigned to one or more users should be copied to the
proper partition for each User (the msmerge_current_partition_mappings table
with the proper partition_id values).
In order to insert records with such a schema, the following
steps occur in order:
Insert
new row into Audit table with new rowguidInsert
entry into AuditUser table associating the auditguid with every userguid that
is assigned this audit.
Merge replication triggers are fired on insert of the Audit
row and another one for the insert of the AuditUser row.
When the Audit row is inserted, the replication trigger follows
the following logic:
Inserts
a copy of that row into the msmerge_contents table. Evaluates
the row to determine which partition(s) this row should be copied to as
well (msmerge_current_partition_mappings table). To do this, it checks to see if the
AuditGuid is referenced in one or more AuditUser rows. Since we haven€™t inserted the AuditUser
row at this point, the trigger€™s logic doesn€™t find a partition to copy
this row to.
When the AuditUser row is inserted, the replication trigger performs
the same logic as with the Audit row, it:
Inserts
a copy of that row into the msmerge_contents table.Evaluates
the row to determine which partition(s) this row should be copied to as
well (msmerge_current_partition_mappings table). Since the row meets the criteria for one
or more partitions, it is copied to the msmerge_current_partition_mappings
table for each partition that exists.
When replication occurs, we see only the AuditUser rows
copied down to our device, and not the corresponding Audit rows. Now that we understand the triggers, it is
plain to see why. If the AuditUser row
could be inserted first, then the trigger on the Audit row would copy that row
into the proper partitions and all would work well. However, the Audit row must be inserted
first, so that foreign key relationship constraints are preserved.
It seems that the Update trigger on the AuditUser row
actually walks the relationships and copies any related child rows to the
msmerge_current_partition_mappings table.
