Check Out Our Performance Tuning Blog - http://blog.pragmaticworks.com/topic/... A non-clustered index is just another way to get to data. Add in a couple columns and off you go. Not too much to think about, just fire and forget. But it’s not really that easy. Non-clustered indexes have a number of various ways in which they can be built and designed that can have significant impacts on performance. In this session we’ll look at what can go into a non-clustered index. We will explore what you can put into a non-clustered index and what you can expect back out from performance.
