Like clustered indexes are better than nonclustered indexes?Sometimes I think about teasing my DBA by saying stuff like "since clustered indexes are better than non-clustered, could you make all our indexes clustered, please?". (I only think about it.)
Sure. That one's easy. Just means every table can only have one index, but it can be done. 🙂

I suppose you could go further and create indexed views over the whole table too, to provide an unlimited number of clustered indexes, at the expense of a certain amount of data duplication...;-)

I am curious why you changed your alias to include NZ.Several reasons, mostly consistency. I am registered with that name on other forum-type sites, and it matches my email address. It also gives people a clue that I may not share their time zone.
Makes sense.

Congratulations Paul, on winning the coveted 13K award!!
I'm thinking we should all agree on November 18th being recognized as Thread Day.
I'm in Oxford, Mississippi, actually, about an hour south of Memphis.
Memphis sits on the Mississippi River at the extreme western edge of Tennessee.

For those not on twitter. I took and passed 70-450 today.It was definitely harder than 70-432, but common sense gets you through it. There isn't a training kit for it, so I basically read up on my worst topics in BOL.
Congrats. 🙂

BWAA-HAAA!!!! If you put everything into a single EAV, you CAN have a clustered index on all the data in the database. :hehe::-D
Yep.

The words 'Mississippi' and 'Tennessee' scare me slightly. Way too many repeated vowels, and a very low score for consonant-diversity!

Database design is easy these days. I just store absolutely everything in a single VARBINARY(MAX) column in one table. One row too - and it doesn't get any more efficient than that.
