    It is because full backup occur..

    Nope. Backups don't grow the DB. They write a couple history rows to MSDB, but that's all.

    Rebuilding indexes, no you can wait for the regular maintenance jobs.

  • RE: Constructing a query

    I would add another table, DepartmentID, Year, OverheadRate.

    As for the query, no looping required. Just join the tables and filter on the year, simple as that.

  • RE: sys.dm_db_missing_index_details results

    See http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Indexing/68439/ and http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Indexing/68636/

    That said, you should never automatically add indexes that missing indexes suggests. Test each one (on...
