Hi Experts,
Is there any way to tell the total data growth increase of some tables when compared with last year.

Thanks,
Varun

Where did you store last year's values?

It would be helpful if you followed Posting Guidelines - http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/88153/0/

Consider storing away the current values now so that when you ask this same question next year, you'll have the needed data.

Assuming you have not designed your system to tell this, there are a few possibilities:

1) see if there are database reports from last year that show a freespace dump.  Then compare to now.
2) see if there are database reports from last year that show rowcounts in tables.  Then compare to now.
3) check your tables to see if they have an INSERT date column.  If so, do rowcounts with last year and today.
4) check with your disk keepers and ask them for disk storage reports mapped to your data files.
5) ask for size reports on you BACKUP FILES.  Backup size will increase with database size.

Each of the above will let you do some kind of calculation that can yield a growth number. Each will have its margin of error but I guess you go with what you can get eh?

Good luck, Kevin
