Next: What is the easiest way to empty all tables of my database?
From: Larry on 2 Nov 2009 16:58 Hi there, I have an app that needs to upload flat files into my DB and each file will range from a few hundred KB to a maximum of 16 MB. Normally it will be at the low end of this range however. Ideally I'd like to process each upload in a single transaction so that on any failure, none of the data will make it into the DB. Since there can theoretically be several thousand uploads going on simultaneously however (though in reality far less), can anyone enlighten me on what the possible impact will be of running many transacations at the same time. I'm concerned about the performance and demand on memory so does anyone know how SQL Server might react in a situation like this (will it cap the number of transactions beyond a certain threshold for instance, queuing any waiting users until resources become available). Thanks in advance. |
