Sizing Tools with SQL Server?
I have seen a number of people ask me if there are tools and easy way to do sizing esp when working with SQL Server. I was browsing through the HP site and bumped into these cool resources which I felt is worth sharing. You might find a similar set of resources with other Hardware vendors too … But here is the starter links:
Business Intelligence Sizer for Microsoft SQL Server
Best practices for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 for Very Large Database (VLDB) BI solutions
OLTP Sizer for Microsoft SQL Server 2005/2008
These were some of the bookmarks I made and sharing. There are tons of others which can also help our readers and I request you folks to write a comment and your experiences.
