You develop a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 database. The database is used by two web applications
that access a table named Products.
You want to create an object that will prevent the applications from accessing the table directly
while still providing access to the required data.
You need to ensure that the following requirements are met:

You develop a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 server database that supports an application.
The application contains a table that has the following definition:
CREATE TABLE Inventory (
ItemID int NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
ItemsInStore int NOT NULL,
ItemsInWarehouse int NOT NULL)
You need to create a computed column that returns the sum total of the ItemsInStore and
ItemsInWarehouse values for each row.
The new column is expected to be queried heavily, and you need to be able to index the column.
