Hello,
There is SQL server database on client side in production environment with huge transaction logs.
Requirement :
1. Take database backup
2. Transaction log backup is not required. - so it is set to Simple recovery model.
I am aware that, Simple Recovery model also increases the transaction logs same as in Full Recovery model as given on below link.

Last week, this transaction log became of 1TB size and blocked everything on the database server.
How to over come with this situation?
PS : There are huge bulk uploads to the database tables.
Current Configuration :
1. Simple Recovery model
2. Target Recovery time : 3 Sec
3. Recovery interval : 0
4. No SQL Agent job schedule to shrink database.
5. No other checkpoints created except automatic ones.
Can anyone please guide me to have correct configuration on SQL server for client's production environment?
Please let me know if any other details required from server.
Thank you,
Mittal.
