Considerations when delete records from table.

Hello, I'm developing application which monitors network packets. The monitoring data are saved into table. Monitoring table maintains the data for fixed quantum time,for example during one 1 hour. So, every minute before or after insert new data, I delete the time-expired data. I doubt that the endless delete operation would results in some problems(increasing index,etc..).

Is this mechanism safe to the dbms?

Aren't there round-robin(?) style table?

thats wat OLTP is for.... just keep the update statistics to auto (its default) , if ur using indexes.....also there may be fragmentation issues ...but thats a DBA activity/Db maintainance...
