Quantifying Database Changes

  • Hi Guys,

    Is is possible to count or quantify the number of changes occuring to a database - i am not talking how many rows are added, or how the file sizes are changing... Nor do I mean TPS.

    What I mean is "400 MB of changes have occured today" that is some inserts, some deletes, some updates that dont say alter the size of data in row, but if it replaces a single char field with another value, that's 1byte of change.

    So i guess what I am really asking is how much data is going through the transaction logs!

    cheers,

    Alex

  • Just review your logs. There are any number of blog posts out there on how to do that. See fn_dblog().
