Answer Posted / aritra biswas
With the creation of primary key the oracle server
automatically creates and maintains a index on the primary
key column(s). Because of that index, the searching
processes on that table will be very fast where as
declaring a column as a (unique+not null) will not create
any index on that colum(s).It has to be created manually by
the DBA/users if we wish to enhance the searching process.
