What is difference between Clusterd and non-clusterd index?

Clustered Index

• Only one per table
• Faster to read than non clustered as data is physically stored in index order

Non Clustered Index

• Can be used many times per table
• Quicker for insert and update operations than a clustered inde

Cluster index sorts the data with respect to the column on which it is applied, where as non-clustered index do not, it is just a logical sorting. Thus we can have only single clustered index and multiple non-clustered index on a table. Primary index on a table is clustered index. By default CREATE INDEX statement creates a non-clustered index
