Partitioning in SQL Server: Managing Sliding Window Scenario

Earlier articles of this series discussed what partitioning in SQL Server is; the different kinds of partitioning options, why and when we should go for partitioning and the benefits a partitioned table/index provides. Then I talked about different partitioning concepts like partition function, partition scheme, guidelines on choosing a partitioning column and creating a partition on table or index. We also learned about partitioned index and how an index is aligned and storage aligned with the base table partitioning, with an example.
This article provides you the steps and guidance needed to manage a sliding window scenario, with an example. For more information, click here.
