I have a table in which I have created a clustered index in one of the column of type INT
. I wanted to create a nonclustered index to increase the performance of the query. However, I do not have any column of type int
.
I therefore thought of creating a nonclustered index on a varchar
type column.
Will it be good to create an index on a column of type Varchar
? Will it help improving the performance of a query? I know it is not a good thing to create an index on a varchar
type column, but just wanted to know if it will improve query performance.
