This post explaines how to add index to EF Core with extra columns included from code.
When creating indexes with code first migrations in Entity Framework Core you can create an index on a table by adding the following to your DbContext:
protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
{
base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);
modelBuilder.Entity<table>()
.HasIndex(t => new { t.Column1, t.Column2}); }

In a scenario where we were using SQL server as a queue, before publishing events to external queues, we wanted the data to be processed only once and in order, even with multiple processors for failover. When reading from the table we wanted to lock the records and block other processors from reading those records, while being processed. This is called Pessimistic Concurrency, unfortunately Entity Framework Core does not support this out of the box. To realize Pessimistic Concurrency you need to write your own SQL queries directly on the database (The solution is database type bound, in this case Microsoft SQL server). This blog post will show how it can be accomplished.

Out of the box Entity Framework does not support Full Text Search. To do Full Text Search you have a number of options to get it working. In this blog post I’ll describe a method to get Full Text Search working using a table valued function. The method does the Full Text Search in a table valued function that returns an id list, the returned ids can be used to filter the records from an actual table.
