In reference to the paper "Running Out of Space". I believe that like other databases and other systems the space of data files (data and log) must be forecast and never unlimited. That is to say, If I have a database for example a database with a size 20 Gb, if it continues growing it's a big problem. The analyst of application or responsible or the salesperson must know the size and its growth in a certain percent.

I believe that the politic must go towards in tow ways:

1. To limit the maximum size.
2. According to growth and the size we choose the growth in megabytes or by percent.

In both cases is the same for the Data and Log.

This is my opinion, it is not the opinion of my company it's only my opinion.

Sincerely:
