SQL Server 2014: ONLINE operation on a single partition of partitioned object

Here I continue a series of articles devoted to new options in SQL Server 2014. Today let's review another useful operation - ONLINE rebuilding some partitions of partitioned objects (tables or indexes).First let me remind you that some versions of SQL Server (Enterprise, Evaluation, Developer) allow you to perform a number of operations in ONLINE mode. The main advantage of this mode is that we can create / change index and keep on working with the data (including changing these data) at the same time.This happens due to the fact that schema lock (Sch-M) is not retained throughout creation / changing process. Here you can find a more complete list of options supported by different versions:

Database consultancy: Hierarchy in MS SQL Server

In our time of greatest prevalence of databases were relational databases, which are the main targets of the tables and the relationships between them. Tables can solve most problems for data storage and manipulation. But in the real world entity requiring storage is not always presented in a tabular form. One of these very common types of data structures other than the table is a tree structure, where each data element is the parent and the offspring. An example of such a structure may be the structure of state enterprises, which is headed by the director (the root of the tree), his deputies, heads of departments from which are subject to certain deputies, employees of departments, which are subject to the rulers.
