Estimate for SQL Server Data management
Hello,
I have experianc in working on very similar application, I propose to import the data into the SQl server using import Export utility of SQL server, We will use stored procedures to query the data and update the data, we can write pre built scripts to execute this job if it is a repeating project. The first time I presume it would take about 20 hours for me to complete this also include varification of the data, also the time is totally dependent on the total number of varifications.
The second time we will complete the same job in 5 hours.
Regards

3) If record exists in its corresponding table, update the record, If not add a new record.
I get updates every month in txt format, some comma delimited some tab delimited, that I need an application to import these files into my staging tables and then update any existing records or add any new records. |
