Answer / ankit gosain

Hi All,

Hash partitioning is more expensive than modulus but it'll
give better performance as well.
The basic difference is, you can apply Modulus partitioning
for the number fields only while you can apply Hash
partitioning for Varchar and any type of field.

If you have more queries, you can mail me on
ankitgosain@gmail.com

Cheers,
Ankit :)
