Do i need to defrag or rebuild indexes on a database where data in the tables is deleted daily?

Asked by zephyr_hex in SQL Server 2005, MS SQL Server

Tags: microsoft, sql server, 2005

i have a database that imports data from our ERP system on a daily basis.  before the import, each table is "cleared" with a "delete from" statement.

do i need to defrag or rebuild indexes on this database?

i have another database that does the same thing as above, but it imports every 30min throughout the work day.

same question... do i need to defrag or rebuild indexes?  or does the DELETE FROM take care of that?

i ran the script here:

that shows which indexes to defrag.  but the numbers i see in the results seem really low...Start Free Trial
