title: log shipping bandwith estimation
body: <p>We have a lot of sql server databases in Simple Recovery Mode.
  We need to move these databases on a different datacenter. These databases can not be closed (they are serving 24x7 mission critical services).
  We are thinking to use log shipping to create a remote standby database and then switching the remote copy to be primary.</p>
  
  <p>How we can estimate the amount o transaction log written daily by each of these databases?
  We need to know this amount to estimate netowork bandwith and size of transaction log backup.</p>
  
  <p>Regards
  Giovanni</p>
