  • RE: How is data stored or indexed in Clustered and nonclustered Columnstore Index?

    Columnstores aren't in-memory structures. They're disk-based.

    Have you read all the whitepapers on columnstore? If not, hit google, a search for whitepaper columnstore finds them.

  • RE: Performance issue in store procedure

    Please post table definitions, index definitions and execution plan.

    Is that SELECT * really necessary or do you just need a subset of the columns?

    Replication doesn't need triggers

    Merge does.
