This is a theoretical design question as to how to address an issue where a
certain table with ~20 fields will grow rapidly (20,000 records per day) and
we need to keep all records in the active DB for seven years. We're talking
about > 50 million records.
I see two approaches to this:
1.) Single table using raid
2.) One table per day (365x7 = 2555 tables) and build an object to
interface as if it were a single table.
Which (if any) approach would you think is better where better = fast
response time and overall maintenance.
