Answer / kumar.t
Index means to sort the data.
Cluster index is physical order of the data.
Non Cluster index is logical order of the data.

The difference is that, Clustered index is unique for any
given table and we can have only one clustered index on a
table. The leaf level of a clustered index is the actual data
and the data is resorted in case of clustered index. Whereas
in case of non-clustered index the leaf level is actually a
pointer to the data in rows so we can have as many non-
clustered indexes as we can on the db.
