Can we create clustered index on non primary key column

Answer Posted / vamsi krishna

Create table Testing(testingID int,testingdesc varchar(20))
Note: I am not defining TestingID as primaryKey
create clustered index IX_TestingID on Testing(TestingID)
-- This will allow u to insert duplicate values to the
column that has clustered index created.

Instead run the below command to create unique Clustered
Index
create unique clustered index IX_TestingID on Testing
(TestingID)

-- The above statment will not allow u to add duplicate
records.
For your better conformation insert some records into the
tabel and execute a select statement having the clustered
index column in the where clause and check the execution
plan. You can see Index Seek.

Conclusion : Clustered index can be created on non
primaryKey column
