Find largest table in a SQL Server database Monitoring table size over time is very important to the SQL Server Engine. In performance point of view to run queries. At the most optimal and avoid performance issues due to larger table size as it important factor in SQL Server performance There are often many times people ask, how to find the largest tables/objects in a database, so below scripts, will determine which objects in a database are largest. SELECT t.name AS TableName, i.name as indexName, sum(p.rows) as RowCounts, sum(a.total_pages) as TotalPages, sum(a.used_pages) as UsedPages, sum(a.data_pages) as DataPages, (sum(a.total_pages) * 8) / 1024 as TotalSpaceMB, (sum(a.used_pages) * 8) / 1024 as UsedSpaceMB, (sum(a.data_pages) * 8) / 1024 as DataSpaceMB FROM sys.tables t INNER JOIN sys.indexes i ON t.object_id = i.object_id INNER JOIN sys.partitions p ON i.object_id = p.object_id AND i.index_id = p.index_id INNER JOIN sys.allocation_units a ON p.partition_id = a.container_id WHERE t.name NOT LIKE 'dt%' AND i.object_id > 255 AND i.index_id <= 1 GROUP BY t.name, i.object_id, i.index_id, i.name ORDER BY TotalSpaceMB DESC

A ROWID in oracle is a pseudo column that is not within the database. It is used to uniquely identify a row with a table.
The rowid values are used to locate necessary information to locate a row.
Example:
Below query selects the address of all rows that contain data for emp in department 20
Sql> SELECT ROWID, address from emp where deptno=50;
