Unique index – doesn’t allow duplicates in a table column and hence helps maintain data integrity.
Clustered index – defines the physical order of records of a database table and performs data searching based on the key values. A table can have only one clustered index.
Non-clustered index – keeps the order of the table records that doesn’t match the physical order of the actual data on the disk. It means that the data is stored in one place and a non-clustered index – in another one. A table can have multiple non-clustered indexes.
