Storing high volumes of data in MS SQL Server Express

The article describes proven methods for MS SQL Server Express which automatically keep the latest data in the primary database, while older data are transferred into dynamically created databases. The system was deployed in Třinecké Železárny a. s. where the data older than 30 days is kept in the primary database, and older data is transferred into databases that were dynamically created for each month of production. Thanks to this method, all databases are smaller than 2 gigabytes, while all data is easily accessible from one SQL Server Express.
