Hi,

Our application has a huge Transation table and it is growing tremendously. Firstly, we have used table partitioning to speed up the process but now the size of the database is getting really big and we consider splitting the data into muliple computers. Is there any way to partition the database, yet they work as one database?

Thanks,
Ebe

do you require all of these data? any chance of applying some archiving strategy to remove some of old & uninterested data?

Table Partitioning is designed for this scenerio? Have you used it properly? Have you spreaded partitions accross drives and switched out old partition to archive locations ?
