You are a database developer. You plan to design a database solution by using SQL Server 2008. The database will contain three tables. The structure of the three tables is as shown in the following table.
You need to minimize disk space usage without altering the data types in the tables of the database. What should you do?
A.
Implement row-level compression on all tables.
B.
Implement row-level compression on Table1 and page-level compression on Table2 and Table3.
C.
Implement row-level compression on Table2 and page-level compression on Table1 and Table3.
D.
Implement row-level compression on Table3 and page-level compression on Table1 and Table2.
Explanation:
The main aim of row level compression is to make fixed data types to a variable data type there by reducing the size. This type of compression will remove any extra bytes in the fixed data type. Row level compression doesn’t affect varchar data type.
