Hi,

Im new to SQL server but i have worked many years with Oracle db. And i have a few questions that i hope that someone can help me with.

1. We have some preformance issues in a sqlserver 2005 and im thinking of implementing partitioning and is this possible to achive without Enterprise ed?

2. In oracle you can truncate a specific partition and work only with one partition if you want for example
select * from tab1 partition(p_20091201) and you will get only the data in the partition is this possible in SQLserver.

3. An alternativ to partitioning in Oracle is to use partitioning views and what I understand is this possible also in SQL-server?

4. In Oracle you can use hints for example in insert statments you can use /*+ Append */ then you write pass some buffers and the insert statements is much faster. Is there any simular thing in SQL-server?

5. In oracle pl/SQL you can use bulk collect and then make a bulk insert from one table to another is this possible in TSQL? Anyone has any examples of this?

many questions at one time :-)

Thanks!
