Estimating Your Space Needs

How many times have you had to estimate space for a new SQL Server database? How much time did you spend on it? Was it a thumb-in-the-wind guess or did you actually examine a schema and calculate some values. If you have asked someone to estimate the space their database will need, they probably guess more than compute, but now Andre Vigneau gives us an easy way we can teach those developers to put some thought into the process.

Question of the Day

Which Result II

I have this code in SQL Server 2022:

CREATE SCHEMA etl;
GO
CREATE TABLE etl.product
(
    ProductID INT,
    ProductName VARCHAR(100)
);
GO
INSERT etl.product
VALUES
(2, 'Bee AI Wearable');
GO
CREATE TABLE dbo.product
(
    ProductID INT,
    ProductName VARCHAR(100)
);
GO
INSERT dbo.product
VALUES
(1, 'Spiral College-ruled Notebook');
GO
CREATE OR ALTER PROCEDURE etl.GettheProduct
AS
BEGIN
    exec('SELECT ProductName FROM product;')
END;
GO
exec etl.GettheProduct
When I execute this code as a user whose default schema is dbo and has rights to the tables and proc, what is returned?
