Overview:

Here is a not-so-uncommon scenario: a query is running slowly. Upon investigation, one determines the reason to be a full-table scan and a possible solution to be an index to help speed up the query. As part of this performance-improvement process, programmers may have to make several changes in the database, including using indexes and statistics, converting to different index types, changing optimizer compatibility, and modifying an initialization parameter.
