With MultiIndex you can index columns of a table with some best suitable view concepts. For
example one view to the table can be defined using the hashing function and find extremely quickly
the required entry or another view can index the same column by its order (how the elements are
naturally inserted) and much more.

I suggest you to take a look at this tutorial:
