Hello guys,
Is there any advantage of having a non clustered index same as a clustered index on a table?.
Here is a little background for my question: In our current data warehouse framework (sql server version - 2005), In all of the tables we have one unique non clustered index same as a clustered index. So I was wondering if there is any advantage of doing that.
From my knowledge I think database engine will always pick clustered index over non clustered index (if they both have have column(s) in same order) because clustered index contains data at the leaf level.
whats your thoughts about this?
