I sometimes think what does archiving of data should do ?
If i have data in a table and i want to archive some data what I should really be doing which will mean that data is archived and what are its benefits ?
Should i just change the status of the record from active to archived ?
Should i move the archived data to another table , database or db server ?
What are we really trying to achieve by archiving the data ?

Only you can answer those questions, because only you can know what you are really trying to achieve.
