How will you increase the performance to retrieve certain record from the table ? [Resolved]

To improve the query performance,

1. Make sure that every table in your database has a primary key.

This will ensure that every table has a clustered index created (and hence, the corresponding pages of the table are physically sorted in the disk according to the primary key field). So, any data retrieval operation from the table using the primary key, or any sorting operation on the primary key field or any range of primary key values specified in the where clause will retrieve data from the table very fast.

2. Create non-clustered indexes on columns which are:

* Frequently used in the search criteria
* Used to join other tables
* Used as foreign key fields
* Used in the ORDER BY clause

Ex: CREATE NON CLUSTERED INDEX NCLIX_OrderDetails_ProductID ON dbo.OrderDetails(ProductID)

3. Rewrite Queries to improve performance.

Some More suggestion :

-- You should retrieve only needed records to display. means Use Paging to get Records
-- Apply necessary Indexes
-- Avoid Subqueries
-- Check your query which execution plan or SQL profiler

Create a Primary key (It automatically create Clustered Index) on the column that is being used to filter the records from the database table. If creating primary key is not possible, create Non-clustered index.

Read this article, it may help http://www.dotnetfunda.com/articles/show/177/a-guide-to-sql-server-indexes

Indexes can be created by right clicking the field name in Design view of the table and selecting on Indexes/Keys ..., then click Add button and select the columns and type etc from the details boxes.

Hope this helps.

Thanks
