Hi,

I have some databases to take backup, I don't want to take all. Whichever the table got updated or modified those databases only I want to take the backup. Please suggest me how to take using query or using other technology. Thanks in advance. :cool:

Solution 1

The easiest way is taking incremental backup of transactional log. So you will create a full backup (lets say once a week) and thereafter transactional log backup, which you can schedule each xx minutes.

You could use the query for each database.

SQL

SELECT
        [name]
       ,create_date
       ,modify_date
FROM
        sys.tables

or perhaps define modified time frame,

SQL

SELECT
        [name]
       ,create_date
       ,modify_date
FROM
        sys.tables
WHERE
        modify_date > DATEADD(day,-30,GETDATE())

And take the Backup of the DB which have modified date between expected range.
