Netezza Hash Function Usage and Examples

You can use Netezza hash function to encode the data by transforming the input into a hash code or hash values. If you use the hash function, no two inputs have same hash values. The hash algorithm is designed to minimise the collision (two inputs having same hash value). You can use the hash function to speed up the data record retrieval by using simple one way lookup. Hash code is used as an index into a hash table which has a pointer to data records. Netezza hash function also…
