I have table with columnsperson_id GUIDfirst_name VARCHAR(100)last_name VARCHAR(100)stree VARCHAR(100)city VARCHAR(50)passport_no VARCHAR(50)table ll contain trillions of rows, and i fear that it ll become very slow bcos i know that indexing on VARCHAR columns is not that effecient.WHAT SHOULD BE THE BEST SENARIOS TO OPTIMIZE MY SEARCH QUERIES ON VARCHAR DATA WITH SUCH A HUGE QUANTITY. |
