clustered index

  • It is said that when a clustered index is created,the table is copied and the data in the table is sorted and then the original table is deleted.So what happens when a new record is created.Is this process continues?

     

  • i thought only the index key was created and the data wasn't physically reorganized

  • When a new row is inserted, it will be put on a page according to its place in the clustered index.  If there is no room on the required page, then a page split occurs.
