I’m looking at this as a baseline explanation of the SQL 2005 Enterprise partitioning. Is there a resource that goes deeper into fine points and considerations of this issue. Some more examples would be useful too.
My main scenario is a time based partition system. With one partition that has the most accessed last X days. This partition will have to somehow slide (at least periodically) to keep it refereeing to the same amount of days.
I’ve found the SQL Server 2005 Books Online normally has all the information I’m looking for.
I found a good resource in the 05 BOL on SQL Server 2005 Partitioning: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188706(SQL.90).aspx
This link goes over designing partitioned tables and indexes: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms175533(SQL.90).aspx
Here is a blog post that explains the sliding window case you posted: http://blogs.msdn.com/menzos/archive/2008/06/30/table-partitioning-sliding-window-case.aspx
