3 Session Objectives And Takeaways Session Objectives Why data compression? Describe data compression in SQL Server Describe Space/Performance trade-offs Key Takeaways Can reduce size of a database significantly Easy to enable/disable No application changes Performance gains

4 Agenda What is the problem? Solution Compression in SQL Server 2008

5 Problem Large Database Storage Cost Workload Performance Manageability Cost Backup/Recovery

6 Solution Reduce the size of the database Reduce the information stored Compress the data Compress the data file No benefit in-memory Need to compress larger chunks, does not scale for random access Store data efficiently in the row/page (+) More data can fit in memory (+) Better Performance for I/O bound workload (-) Performance degradation for CPU bound workload

7 Agenda What is the problem? Solution Compression in SQL Server 2008

8 Compression in SQL Server SQL Server 2008 ROW and PAGE compression Backup Compression Two key changes Efficient storage of data within row (both for data and index) Reduce Data Redundancy on the page

9 Efficient Storage in the ROW Variable Length Encoding (new row format) 4-byte integer SQL bytes SQL2008 (compression enabled) 1 Special Handling of NULL and 0s CHAR data type storage optimization

10 Reduce Data Redundancy: Column Prefix Factor out common prefix from the same column across all rows on the page Store these prefix values once and then reference them from respective columns Example: Student (Name VARCHAR (10), ID INT, CODE VARBINARY(3))

11 Column Prefix Page Header Lambert NULL x41 20x42 20x43 0x5B8D80 0x41AABB 0x5CAABB 0x9A4041 0x112233

12 Reduce Data Redundancy: Page Dictionary Find repeating values across all columns on all the rows on the page Store these values in a dictionary once and reference them from respective columns

13 Page Dictionary Page Header Lambert NULL Column prefix Page Dictionary x41 20x42 0x5B8D80 1 0x41AABB 0x5CAABB x43 1 0x9A4041 0x112233

14 Enabling Compression Enterprise Edition only Types of data compressions ROW Stores fixed length values as variable length Superset of vardecimal storage format Row metadata optimized BLOB/LOB is not ROW compressed PAGE (includes ROW) Column Prefix Dictionary Only in-row BLOB/LOB can potentially benefit from PAGE compression

15 Enabling Compression Examples Unpartitioned table Index Index Table Table Uncompressed PAGE Compressed

Data Compression TSQL Example CREATE TABLE T (c1 int, c2 char(2000) ) WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = ROW) CREATE TABLE T_Part (c1 int, c2 char(2000) ) ON somepartscheme (c1) WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION =

17 Data Compression TSQL Example CREATE TABLE T (c1 int, c2 char(2000) ) WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = ROW) CREATE TABLE T_Part (c1 int, c2 char(2000) ) ON somepartscheme (c1) WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = PAGE ON PARTITIONS (1-7), DATA_COMPRESSION = NONE ON PARTITIONS (8) ) ALTER INDEX CI ON T REBUILD WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION=PAGE) ALTER INDEX CI ON T REBUILD PARTITION = 3 WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION=PAGE)

18 Enabling Compression Estimate space savings sp_estimate_data_compression_savings Space savings depend upon Schema Data Distribution

19 Let us estimate.

22 Btree And PAGE Compression ROOT Uncompressed PAGE Compressed ROW Compressed INTERNAL INTERNAL INTERNAL INTERNAL LEAF LEAF LEAF LEAF

23 Impact Of Data Compression Application No changes needed in the application Application throughput increase if I/O bound Utilities All Database Utilities (e.g. Backup, Index, DBCC) fully supported Gains if I/O bound

24 Supportability DBCC PAGE enhanced New Perfmon counters Page Compression attempts/sec Page Compressed/sec New columns in DMVs sys.db_index_physical_stats compressed_pages_count sys.db_index_operational_stats Page_compression_success_count Page_compression_attempt_count

26 Summary Compression Can reduce size of database significantly Lower total cost of ownership (TCO) Easy to enable/disable No application changes Performance gains
