What options are available for rolling back transactions after the fact in SQL Server?

I'm looking to have a plan in place before somebody deletes 10,000 of the wrong rows.

  • RedGate SQL Log rescue (Sorry, SQL Server 2000 only. News to me)
  • Apex SQL Log

I'm sure there used to be more. Back when I was a prod DBA I couldn't get through a week without some irritating Sales muppet trying to flog me a GUI or tool.

I would also suggest you take regular backups with FULL recovery. A 10k rows update may have subsequent changes that will invalidate any rollback.

FWIW, I've never seen the need for one. No-one can delete 10k rows in my DB anyway unless it's designed that way: why would I allow someone to run DELETE directly?
