Indexing in Azure SQL
Indexing in Azure SQL improves query performance by organizing data for faster retrieval. An index is like a book’s table of contents, enabling the database engine to find rows quickly without scanning the entire table. Azure SQL supports Clustered Indexes (store data rows in sorted order, only one per table) and Non-Clustered Indexes (store pointers to data rows, allowing multiple per table). You can also use Columnstore Indexes for analytics and Filtered Indexes for subsets of data.
Benefits include reduced query execution time, improved JOIN performance, and efficient ORDER BY or GROUP BY operations. However, indexes require extra storage and slow down INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE operations due to index maintenance.
Best practices:
Index frequently queried columns, especially those in WHERE, JOIN, and ORDER BY clauses.
Avoid over-indexing to reduce overhead.
Use the Azure SQL Index Advisor to get optimization recommendations.
Periodically rebuild or reorganize indexes to prevent fragmentation.
Proper indexing balances performance and storage, ensuring optimal Azure SQL workload efficiency.
