Dear Friend, Is this true that Update SQL Query is slower because of Clustered index?????? currently i have cluster index on ID columns which have the primary key How can i indentify the which column should have the Clustered index??? Thanks
Welcome to the forum... Clustered is better to create on a unique column like PK...but it all depends on to whome you ask... Check the following blog from Kiberly... http://www.sqlskills.com/BLOGS/KIMBERLY/post/The-Clustered-Index-Debate-Continues.aspx
Clustered indexes should be on a column where the value "never" changes, like an identity column. Once you start changing the column value on a clustered index, the change is repeated on all other indexes on the same table.
