Can Somebody tell me the difference between Clustered & Non-
Clustered Index??

Answer Posted / vikas kant

Clustered index is a special type of index that reorders
the way in which the data is pysically stored in table.A
table can have just 1 clustered index.leaf nodes of a
clustered index contains the datapages.

Non clusterd index is also a special type of index in which
the logical order of the index doesnt match physical stored
rows on the disk.A table can have multiple indexes probably
(16).
