Question

Oracle 12c automatically creates an index for which type of constraints?
a. NOT NULL
b. PRIMARY KEY
c. FOREIGN KEY
d. UNIQUE KEY
e. none of the above
f. only a and b
g. only b and d

Expert Solution
Step 1

Primary key:

  • Primary key constraint gives uniqueness to an index.
  • It uniquely defines a record and it has a single field or combination of fields.
  • For primary key constraints Oracle 12c creates an index automatically.
Step 2

Unique key:

  • It has same properties like primary key.
  • These two keys are created for a column. By using unique key and primary key the user need not to perform full table scan, a value in a table can find without full table scan.
  • Unique key creates an index in Oracle 12c automatically.
